Made from high speed steel (HSS) with an oxide coating, this 4-flute straight-flute tap provides consistent chip clearance and durability across a range of ferrous materials. It carries a Class 2B thread fit with an H3 thread limit, making it appropriate for standard tolerance threaded assemblies. The overall length is 2.375 inches, and the threaded portion spans 0.5 inches. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians use this tap in manual tapping operations with a tap wrench or tapping fixture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for production and maintenance threading tasks in metalworking shops, fabrication facilities, and industrial maintenance environments. The plug chamfer — with a taper that bridges starter and bottoming taps — makes it versatile for starting threads in through-holes and for tapping holes with adequate depth clearance. Rated for use in cast iron, stainless steel, and steel. The right-hand thread direction matches the standard 10-24 UNC fastener specification, so no special tooling configuration is required for most setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-24 UNC thread form, Class 2B fit, H3 thread limit for standard tolerance internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for wear resistance in cast iron, stainless steel, and carbon steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOxide coating reduces friction and provides light corrosion protection during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute straight-flute geometry promotes chip evacuation in both blind and through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer allows use as a general-purpose starting tap without requiring a separate taper tap\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut, non-coolant-through design compatible with standard manual and light-machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 10-24 UNC replacement or production tap compatible with manual tap wrenches and tapping heads sized for the 0.194-inch shank diameter and 0.152-inch square drive.

Secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap is started perpendicular to the hole to prevent tap breakage and thread misalignment. Apply a suitable cutting fluid for the workpiece material — especially important when tapping stainless steel — to reduce heat buildup and extend tap life. Inspect the tap for chipping or wear before each use, as a damaged tap can produce out-of-tolerance threads or break inside the part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-24 (0.190 inches nominal diameter)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.194 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Drive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.152 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Stainless Steel, Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1002BO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CLEVELAND\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: C56004\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51716490330418,"sku":"C56004","price":21.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c6206aad74eeec0ebfd8b3cb5a8dd70d.jpg?v=1788526783","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c56004-hand-tap-10-24-unc-plug-4-flute-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
