Frequently Asked Questions
What is an OSG thread forming tap used for?
An OSG thread forming tap creates internal threads without cutting material, ideal for ductile metals like aluminum and steel. It displaces material to form threads, producing stronger, chip-free threads for applications in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing.
What are the specifications of the OSG 5/16"-18 UNC thread forming tap?
This OSG tap has a 5/16"-18 UNC thread size, H9 / 2B tolerance, plug chamfer, and TiN coated cobalt construction. The TiN coating reduces friction and extends tool life. It is designed for general purpose thread forming in through or blind holes.
