Cleveland C64038 NPT Pipe Tap
This Cleveland pipe tap cuts 1/8"-27 NPT threads in pipe and conduit fittings. It features a semi-bottoming chamfer and four flutes for efficient chip clearance. The high-speed steel construction provides durability for general-purpose threading tasks.
Suited for NPT pipe threading jobs
This tool suits maintenance technicians and plumbers cutting standard NPT threads on pipe ends. It is not intended for through-hole tapping where a taper or plug chamfer is required. Buyers needing different thread forms or sizes should select another tap.
1/8"-27 NPT thread specification
The defining specification is the 1/8"-27 NPT thread size, which determines compatibility with matching pipe fittings. Verify the required thread standard and diameter before purchase to ensure correct fit. The 27 threads per inch and NPT taper are fixed by this designation.

Questions about this item
How deep can the 1/8"-27 NPT tap cut threads in a single pass?
The tap has a thread length of 3/4 in, so it cuts threads to that depth in one pass.
Does the high-speed steel tap generate excessive heat during extended threading sessions?
High-speed steel resists heat buildup well, and the bright uncoated finish helps dissipate heat during all-day use.
What drill bit size must I already have to prepare the hole for this 75 percent thread tap?
A size Q drill bit is required to produce the correct 75 percent thread engagement before tapping.
