The Hertel Spiral Point Tap is a precision threading tool designed for creating 3/8-24 UNF (Unified National Fine) threads with exceptional accuracy. Featuring 3 flutes and a plug chamfer design, this right-hand tap delivers efficient chip evacuation and smooth cutting action. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS) with a premium TiN (Titanium Nitride) coating, it offers enhanced durability, heat resistance, and reduced friction during operation. The 3B class of fit ensures threads meet industry standards for precision applications. With an overall length of 2-15/16", this H3 tap provides excellent reach for various threading tasks. Manufactured by MSC Industrial under the trusted Hertel brand, this spiral point tap (part #008467AS25) is ideal for through-hole applications where chips need to be pushed ahead of the tap rather than drawn back through the hole, making it perfect for professional machinists and industrial applications.
