OSG 1/2"-13 UNC Oversized Thread-Forming Tap

An OSG thread forming tap creates internal threads by displacing material rather than cutting it. This process produces stronger threads with no chips, making it ideal for ductile materials like aluminum, brass, and low-carbon steel in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications.

This OSG thread forming tap has a 1/2"-13 UNC thread size, H13 oversize tolerance, plug chamfer, and TiCN coating on cobalt steel. The TiCN coating provides wear resistance and lubricity for tapping in abrasive materials. It is designed for through-hole or blind-hole thread forming.

Select the tap based on thread size, pitch, and material. For this OSG tap, use a 1/2"-13 UNC thread. The H13 oversize is for applications requiring slightly larger threads, such as after coating or plating. Always match the tap chamfer (plug) to hole type and use proper tapping speed and lubrication.
