OSG FORMING #2-56 UNC Thread-Forming Tap

The OSG FORMING Tap #2-56 UNC is used to create internal threads in ductile materials like aluminum, brass, and low-carbon steel. Its thread-forming design displaces material rather than cutting it, producing stronger threads without chips. This makes it ideal for automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications where thread integrity is critical.

This OSG FORMING Tap has a #2-56 UNC thread size, an H8 tolerance class, and a modified bottoming chamfer for threading close to hole bottoms. It is made from cobalt high-speed steel for heat resistance and durability. The manufacturer part number is 1400157800, and it is designed for general-purpose thread forming in ductile materials.

To select the correct OSG FORMING Tap, match the thread size (e.g., #2-56 UNC) and tolerance class (e.g., H8) to your hole specifications. Use forming taps only in ductile materials that displace rather than cut. Ensure the chamfer type—modified bottoming for blind holes—suits your thread depth. Consult OSG's technical data for material-specific speeds and lubrication.
