Cleveland C59361 Thread Forming Tap
The Cleveland C59361 is a high-speed steel thread forming tap designed to create internal threads in ductile materials without producing chips. It suits maintenance technicians and machinists who need reliable thread formation in through-hole or blind-hole applications using pneumatic or hand-tapping equipment.
1/2"-13 UNC capacity with H8 limits
This tap cuts a 1/2"-13 UNC thread with a 75 percent thread drill size of 11.70 mm and a thread length of .94 in. The H8 thread limit targets a 2B-3B class of fit, providing appropriate tolerance for general fastening; it is not suited for high-precision aerospace fits or materials that resist cold forming.
Bright high-speed steel with plug chamfer
The uncoated bright finish resists galling in aluminium, mild steel and copper alloys while allowing easy visual inspection of cutting edges. A plug chamfer with 0 flutes starts threads smoothly in existing holes, and the 3.38 in overall length fits standard tap holders; the tool lacks flute space for chip evacuation, so it cannot be used as a cutting tap in brittle or hardened materials.

Questions about this item
Will this 1/2"-13 tap work with my existing pneumatic tapping head?
The tap is a standard 1/2"-13 UNC thread forming tool with a 3.38 in overall length and 0.94 in thread length; verify your tapping head accepts this shank style and reach.
How do I confirm the tap is forming threads correctly on the first hole?
Check that the formed threads match a 2B-3B class of fit using a 1/2"-13 thread gauge and ensure the 75 percent thread depth is achieved with the 11.70 mm drill size.
Does the C59361 come with a drill bit or lubricant, or must I buy them separately?
The box contains only the bright finish high-speed steel tap; you must supply the 11.70 mm drill bit and suitable tapping fluid yourself.
