Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CHICAGO-LATROBE Tap Kit 173229 used for?

This three-piece hand tap set is used for creating #8-32 UNC internal threads in metal. It includes taper, plug, and bottoming taps for through-hole and blind-hole threading. The TiN-coated high-speed steel construction provides wear resistance for manual or machine tapping in industrial maintenance and production environments.

What are the specifications of the CHICAGO-LATROBE Tap Kit 173229?

The kit contains three taps: taper, plug, and bottoming, each with #8-32 UNC thread, H3/2B fit, and 2-flute design. The taps are made of TiN-coated high-speed steel. The manufacturer part number is 173229. This set covers progressive threading steps for standard UNC applications.

How to select the right CHICAGO-LATROBE tap for a blind hole?

For blind holes, use the bottoming tap from this kit, which threads to the bottom. The taper tap starts the thread, the plug tap continues it, and the bottoming tap finishes. Always match the tap size (#8-32 UNC) to the drilled hole diameter. Use cutting fluid and reverse periodically to clear chips.
