OSG Thread Forming Tap: 5/16"-18 UNC, H12, Plug Chamfer

An OSG thread forming tap creates internal threads by displacing material rather than cutting it, producing stronger threads in ductile materials like aluminum and steel. It is ideal for applications requiring high thread strength and no chip evacuation, common in automotive and aerospace manufacturing.

This OSG tap has a 5/16"-18 UNC thread size, H12 tolerance, plug chamfer, and TiCN coating on cobalt steel. The TiCN coating enhances wear resistance and tool life in abrasive materials. It is designed for through-hole or blind-hole threading in ductile workpieces.

3G Electric supplies OSG thread forming taps worldwide, handling full logistics and customs clearance for global delivery. As a sourcing partner, we provide genuine OSG taps like the 5/16"-18 UNC model with H12 tolerance and TiCN coating, ensuring you get the right tool for your threading application.

Select an OSG thread forming tap based on thread size, tolerance class (e.g., H12), material hardness, and coating. For ductile materials like aluminum or low-carbon steel, a TiCN-coated cobalt tap offers extended tool life. Always match the tap's chamfer type (plug, bottoming) to your hole configuration.
