Frequently Asked Questions
What is an OSG thread forming tap used for?
An OSG thread forming tap creates internal threads by displacing material rather than cutting it, producing stronger threads with no chips. It is ideal for ductile materials like aluminum, steel, and stainless steel in general-purpose machining applications across automotive, aerospace, and industrial manufacturing.
What are the specifications of the OSG #4-40 UNC thread forming tap?
This OSG tap is #4-40 UNC size with a H4 / 2B-3B tolerance, modified bottoming chamfer, and cobalt construction. The H4 pitch diameter limit ensures precise thread fit for 2B-3B classes. Cobalt provides heat resistance for longer tool life in harder materials.
