SKU CH-Z65B-HH8YP

Straight flute hand tap set creates #6-32 UNC threads in three stages using high-speed steel with 3 flutes and H3 thread limit

  • Three-flute design clears chips efficiently

  • High-speed steel construction resists wear in general use
  • Set includes taper, plug and bottoming taps for full threading depth
  • Bright uncoated finish suits a variety of materials

Cle-Line C62012 Hand Tap Set

The Cle-Line C62012 is a straight flute hand tap set designed for creating internal threads in a range of materials. It includes bottoming, plug, and taper taps to cover through-hole and blind-hole applications. The set suits maintenance technicians, machinists, and hobbyists who need to cut #6-32 UNC threads by hand.

Verify Thread Size and Drill Diameter

Before ordering, confirm that the workpiece requires a #6-32 UNC thread with a class 2B fit and right-hand direction. The specified 75 percent thread drill size is .1065 in, so the correct drill bit must be available. Ensure the material is compatible with high speed steel cutting tools and that the 11/16 in thread length meets the hole depth requirement.

High Speed Steel Construction and Flute Design

Each tap is made from bright, uncoated high speed steel with three flutes for chip clearance during manual operation. The straight flute geometry works well for general-purpose threading in steel, cast iron, and non-ferrous metals. The 2 in overall length provides adequate reach for most bench work, while the H3 thread limit ensures consistent pitch diameter control.

Questions about this item

Does the C62012 set include the 0.1065 in drill bit or must I buy it separately?

The set contains three #6-32 UNC taps — taper, plug and bottoming — each with 3 flutes, 11/16 in thread length and 2 in overall length. The 0.1065 in drill size is listed for 75 % thread engagement but the bit itself is not included.

Which of the three taps in the C62012 set should I start with for a through hole?

Use the taper tap first; its gradual chamfer cuts threads easily in a through hole. Follow with the plug tap to deepen the threads, and finish with the bottoming tap only if you need threads close to the bottom of a blind hole.

What does the H3 limit on the #6-32 taps mean when I cut threads in steel?

H3 indicates a pitch-diameter tolerance that produces a class 2B fit, giving standard clearance for a #6-32 screw in typical steel applications.
