Regal Beloit GH-6 NS Straight Plug Tap 6 Flute

Regal Beloit GH-6 NS Straight Plug Tap is a six-flute plug-style tool designed for cutting internal threads in through-holes. The straight flute geometry supports reliable alignment and chip clearance during tapping. The GH-6 designation identifies the model within Regal-Beloit's NS-series taps, with NS indicating the National Standard thread form. This version is sized 1-3/4-7 NS, corresponding to a 1.75 inch nominal major diameter and 7 threads per inch, following the National Standard thread pitch. Made in the USA, this Regal-Beloit tap is intended for use with compatible plug-tap holders or tapping machines that support the specified size and pitch. In applications requiring internal threads in metal workpieces, the GH-6 NS plug tap provides a consistent thread profile when tapped into through-holes. The six-flute geometry aids chip evacuation and reduces the risk of clogging during tapping across common metals.
