Frequently Asked Questions

What is the OSG spiral point tap M3x0.5 used for?

The OSG spiral point tap M3x0.5 is used for threading blind or through holes in metal, particularly in production environments. Its spiral point design pushes chips forward, reducing chip clogging. It is suitable for general-purpose tapping in materials like steel, aluminum, and cast iron.

What are the specifications of the OSG spiral point tap M3x0.5?

The OSG spiral point tap has a metric M3x0.5 thread size, 6H tolerance, 2 flutes, and a plug chamfer. It is made from black oxide high-speed steel. The manufacturer part number is 2888001. This tap is designed for general-purpose threading in production applications.

Where to buy the OSG spiral point tap M3x0.5 worldwide?

You can source the OSG spiral point tap M3x0.5 worldwide through 3G Electric, a global industrial equipment distributor. We handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to your location. Contact us for availability and lead time on this OSG tap.

How to select the correct OSG spiral point tap for your application?

To select the correct OSG spiral point tap, match the thread size (e.g., M3x0.5) and tolerance (6H) to your hole specifications. Use a plug chamfer for through holes or blind holes with sufficient depth. Ensure the tap material (high-speed steel) suits your workpiece hardness. Consult OSG's technical data for optimal speeds and feeds.
