Made from high-speed steel with a bright\/uncoated finish, it produces 10-24 UNC internal threads sized to accept helical coil thread inserts. The plug chamfer style makes it well suited for through-hole tapping where the tap can advance freely past the bottom of the hole. With 2 flutes and a spiral point geometry, the tap pushes chips forward ahead of the cutting edge, reducing chip clogging and improving hole quality in production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die professionals working on thread repair, insert installation, and new part fabrication. STI taps are commonly specified when installing Helicoil or equivalent helical thread inserts to restore or strengthen threads in aluminum, cast iron, steel, and similar materials. The 10-24 UNC thread size covers a wide range of fastener applications in light mechanical assemblies, sheet metal work, and equipment repair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpiral point geometry pushes chips forward for cleaner through-hole tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSTI (Screw Thread Insert) thread form sized for helical coil insert installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides durability across common engineering materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer allows progressive thread engagement in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit provides controlled fit for consistent insert seating\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHelicoil Reference Number 3CSB for cross-reference with insert kit specifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 10-24 UNC Screw Thread Insert (STI) thread systems.

Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the drill hole diameter matches the STI tap drill size chart for 10-24 UNC before tapping. Do not reverse the tap without clearing chips when working in blind holes, and avoid applying side load to prevent tap breakage. Follow manufacturer insert installation procedures after tapping to ensure proper insert depth and engagement.\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 UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: STI UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHelicoil Reference Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3CSB\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\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: HERTEL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: K007032AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51732455817522,"sku":"K007032AS","price":34.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3bf53cb4534d4ab2387be60ada4e99d7.jpg?v=1788742947","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k007032as-spiral-point-sti-tap-10-24-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
