Product Description
A French-brand spiral flute tap built from powder-metallurgy HSS, the UNC 5USH, ideal for tapping blind (non-through) holes — its spiral flutes pull chips back toward the shank, keeping the hole bottom clear. Available in 2 sizes (thread dia 1, pitch 13, thread length 2.5mm, overall length 85mm, shank dia 9mm). A TiN coating adds a hard golden film for better wear and anti-galling, extending tool life. Suitable for machining carbon and alloy steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals like aluminium and copper, workpiece hardness up to HRC40. French brand, consistent quality. 5HS (metric) and 5WSH (Whitworth) are the same family - all three are HSS-PM hard-material spiral flute taps with a low 15-degree helix; the difference is the thread standard and range: choose 5HS for metric and 5WSH for Whitworth, while UNC is covered only by this 5USH in 1/2-13. For UNC blind holes in normal-hardness material, use the general-purpose 5US or 5BUS.
