Greenfield Threading 313507 hand tap
The Greenfield Threading 313507 is a spiral point hand tap designed for creating internal threads in metal workpieces. It features a 7/16 inch -20 UNF thread size and a 3 5/32 inch overall length. The tool is made from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish and uses a right-hand thread direction.
Machinists cutting UNF threads in through-holes
This tap suits machinists and maintenance technicians cutting 7/16 inch -20 UNF threads in through-hole applications where chip evacuation ahead of the tool is preferred. The H11 thread limit and Class 1B fit target standard production tolerances. It is not intended for blind holes where chips must be pulled upward or for users needing a coated tool for extended life in abrasive alloys.
Straightforward use with standard tap wrenches
Installation requires a compatible tap wrench or handle matched to the tap shank; the square drive engages the wrench for manual rotation. The 1 7/16 inch thread length and 75 percent thread drill size of 9.95 mm guide the drilling operation. Common issues include tap breakage from misalignment, insufficient lubrication, or forcing the tool without clearing chips in deep holes.
