Westward 7/8-14 UNF Tap Set

This Westward hand tap set cuts 7/8-14 UNF threads in a right-hand direction. It contains three high-speed steel taps with a bright, uncoated finish. Each tap has four flutes and an H4 thread limit for standard fit. The set suits maintenance, repair and small-batch threading work.

Installation and Common Issues

Start the tap square to the hole using a suitable tap wrench and apply cutting fluid for each pass. Advance the tap one turn, then back off half a turn to break chips and prevent binding. The most frequent problems are misalignment that produces oversized or bell-mouthed threads and tap breakage caused by insufficient lubrication or forcing the tool.

Pre-Order Checks

Verify that the workpiece material is compatible with high-speed steel taps and that the drilled hole matches the 7/8-14 UNF tap drill size. Confirm the required thread limit is H4 and that a right-hand thread is correct for the application. Ensure you have a tap wrench that fits the 4 11/16 in overall length and 2 7/32 in thread length.
