It cuts a 1-72 UNF internal thread with a plug chamfer that progressively engages the workpiece, pushing chips forward ahead of the cutting edges to keep the flutes clear. Ground to an H2 thread limit with a 2B class of fit, it delivers consistent thread tolerance for standard fastener assemblies. The two-flute geometry in high-speed steel suits moderate-speed tapping operations on a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The bright uncoated finish keeps surface friction low on compatible materials without the added cost of a coating.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for through-hole applications in alloy steel, carbon steel, and aluminum. It is commonly used in general machining, assembly, and maintenance environments where 1-72 UNF threads are required in thin or shallow workpieces. At 1.688 inches overall length with a 0.375 inch thread length, it fits standard tap handles and machine collets sized for its 0.141 inch shank diameter. Right-hand thread direction matches standard clockwise-drive tooling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward, keeping flutes clear during through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit and 2B class of fit for consistent, inspection-ready thread tolerances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles alloy steel, carbon steel, and aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand cut compatible with standard tap wrenches and machine tap holders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 1.688 inch OAL fits tight-clearance fixturing setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for through-hole threading applications requiring a 1-72 UNF, 2B class of fit thread in alloy steel, carbon steel, or aluminum workpieces.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the pilot hole is drilled to the correct diameter for a 1-72 UNF thread before tapping. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Back the tap out periodically to break chips when tapping deeper holes, even in through-hole applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 72\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: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Through-Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel, Aluminum, Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.688 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.141 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: Bright\/Uncoated\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: 1011\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.0042 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: C57024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CLEVELAND CONTROLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714124677426,"sku":"C57024","price":41.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1bdc93e947e811cf4a3c8eb53a1abaf5.jpg?v=1788496553","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/cleveland-c57024-spiral-point-tap-1-72-unf-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
