Cleveland #6-32 Thread Forming Tap
The Cleveland C59223 is a thread forming tap designed to create internal threads in ductile materials. It features a #6-32 UNC size with a 75 percent thread depth and a 3.10 mm drill size. The H5 thread limit targets a 2B-3B class of fit. High speed steel construction provides durability for general purpose threading tasks.
Replaces worn or incorrect taps
This tap replaces a worn or damaged #6-32 forming tool to restore accurate thread production. The jump is worth it when an existing tap no longer holds the H5 limit or produces threads outside the 2B-3B class. A new bright finish tap cuts cleanly without the galling common on used tools. It upgrades performance for through-hole applications needing a plug chamfer.
Suits maintenance and assembly technicians
Technicians forming threads in aluminium, brass or mild steel will find this tap matches the required specification. It is not for cutting threads in hardened steel or brittle materials where a cutting tap is required. Builders needing a different thread size, pitch, or coating must select another tool. The zero flute design limits use to forming applications only.

Questions about this item
What drill bit diameter matches the 75 percent thread spec for this #6-32 tap?
Use a 3.10 mm drill bit to prepare the hole for 75 percent thread engagement with this tap.
How do I start the tap straight so threads form cleanly in the 3/8 in thread length?
Align the tap perpendicular to the workpiece, apply steady pressure, and turn the plug-chamfer lead slowly for the first few threads.
When should I replace this High Speed Steel tap if the bright finish wears off?
Replace it when thread flanks show rounding or the tap requires excessive torque to form clean #6-32 threads.
