Unlike cutting taps, thread forming taps displace material rather than removing chips, producing stronger threads with a burnished finish. This tap is manufactured from high-speed steel and coated with titanium nitride (TiN) for increased surface hardness and wear resistance. It features a bottoming chamfer of 1-2 threads, allowing threads to be formed close to the bottom of a blind hole. Overall length is 2.375 inches with a thread length of 0.875 inches. Machinists and maintenance technicians use this tap in production and repair work where thread quality and hole depth are critical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for blind hole threading in ferrous and non-ferrous metals where a 10-32 UNF thread form is required. The bottoming chamfer makes it appropriate as a finishing tap following a plug or taper tap when full thread depth to the bottom of the hole is needed. Typical applications include precision machined components, fixture work, and equipment repair in manufacturing and maintenance environments. The right-hand thread direction and H4 thread limit support standard UNF tolerancing requirements for close-fit assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread forming design displaces material without chip generation, reducing tap breakage risk in blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTitanium nitride coating increases surface hardness and extends tool life in abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottoming chamfer (1-2 thread lead) allows threading close to the bottom of blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH4 thread limit for controlled tolerance on 10-32 UNF internal threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, standard for UNF fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides toughness across a range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use in blind hole threading operations requiring a 10-32 UNF thread form with a bottoming chamfer. Compatible with standard tap wrenches and machine tap holders accepting a 0.194-inch round shank with a 0.152-inch square drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and toolmakers using a tap wrench or CNC tapping attachment. Ensure the workpiece is securely fixtured and the tap is aligned perpendicular to the hole before applying torque. Thread forming taps require an appropriately sized forming tap drill — consult UNF forming tap drill charts for the correct hole diameter before use. Apply cutting fluid rated for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend tool life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bottoming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfered Threads\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-2P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Titanium Nitride (TiN)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 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 Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.152 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Blind Hole Threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23241600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: K010355AS25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HERTEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51755875565874,"sku":"K010355AS25","price":40.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/39a6ca7c3291582db39e449c119826c6.jpg?v=1788960907","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/hertel-k010355as25-thread-forming-tap-10-32-unf-bottoming-hss-tin","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
