Someone decided to get some .5 hand taps...couldn't power tap worth a shit. We thought we had bad taps lol.
Sometimes there is a difference in "hook" or rake angle that can cause issues. Taps actually specified as hand taps sometimes have higher rake for easier tapping by hand but that higher rake edge won't hold up at higher speeds when power tapping. They may also be a taper tap instead of the ubiquitous plug. There are even serial taps in some sizes, with a set of three being the standard. The last tap used is sized at correct pitch diameter, the other two are smaller in pitch diameter and they are used consecutively in order from smallest to largest to rough and finish the thread. Those aren't too commonly used these days though.
