Cleveland C54886 Tap for UNC Threads
The Cleveland C54886 is a straight-flute hand tap designed to cut unified national coarse threads in a single pass. It suits maintenance technicians and machinists who need to create internal threads in through-holes or blind holes using hand or powered tapping heads.
Bottoming Chamfer Limits Thread Depth
A bottoming chamfer of two to three threads means the tap cannot start a thread from the top of a blind hole. It requires a pre-drilled hole and a taper or plug tap to begin the thread before this tool finishes to the bottom.
H4 Limit Handles 75 Percent Thread Class 2B
The H4 thread limit and 75 percent thread drill size of 19.50 mm provide the correct pitch diameter for a class 2B fit. High-speed steel construction resists wear in general-purpose steel and non-ferrous alloys, but the uncoated bright finish offers no lubricity or heat resistance for difficult materials.
