The OSG Threading Tap RC (BSPT) A-Straight Flute is a precision tapping tool built for professionals who need reliable BSPT threads in both through and blind holes. With a powder metal body and a TiCN coating, it’s engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding applications.

• Thread Type: BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) with DIN5156 compatibility for standard-compliant threading.
• Size: 1/2" nominal diameter, 14 threads per inch (1/2 x 14) for common BSPT fittings.
• Flute Design: A-Straight flute to promote smooth chip flow in long-chip materials.
• Material: Powder metal substrate delivering balanced hardness, toughness, and wear resistance.
• Coating: TiCN coating reduces friction and improves heat resistance for higher cutting speeds and longer tool life.
• Application: Ideal for both through and blind hole tapping, producing consistent BSPT threads in recessed or limited-access features.
• Orientation: Right-hand threading to match standard BSPT fittings and common assembly practices.

This tap delivers precise thread forms with durable construction, helping you achieve reliable seals and repeatable results in plumbing, hydraulic, and pneumatic components. The combination of powder metal and TiCN coating supports longer tool life and reduced downtime, while the straight-flute design ensures efficient chip evacuation. Whether fabricating new components or repairing existing ones, this RC tapping solution is designed to optimize productivity and thread quality in demanding environments.
