It features four flutes and a plug chamfer, which provides a moderate lead-in of approximately 3 to 5 thread chamfer length, making it well suited for general-purpose tapping in a wide range of materials. The tap is manufactured from carbon steel with a bright uncoated finish and carries a 2B class of fit, the standard tolerance class for most fastener and assembly applications. With an overall length of 2.375 inches and a thread length of 0.875 inches, it fits standard tap handles and T-handle wrenches used in production and maintenance work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use by machinists, maintenance technicians, electricians, and plumbers who need to cut or repair 10-24 UNC threads in metal components, electrical enclosures, conduit bodies, pipe hangers, and general mechanical assemblies. The 10-24 thread size is one of the most common fastener threads in light-duty mechanical and electrical work. Right-hand thread direction aligns with standard fastener convention. The plug chamfer style makes this tap a practical first-choice tool for most through-hole and sufficiently deep blind-hole applications where a starting or bottoming tap is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-24 UNC thread form with 2B class of fit for standard fastener tolerance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for moderate lead-in, suitable for through-holes and most blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFour flutes for efficient chip clearance during hand tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction handles general-purpose tapping in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and plastics\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish  -  no coating to chip or interfere with tolerance on light-duty work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, compatible with standard tap wrenches and handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard straight flute hand tap for 10-24 UNC thread cutting, compatible with T-handle and adjustable tap wrenches sized for the 0.194-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by a machinist or qualified technician using a tap wrench or T-handle; power tapping is not recommended for hand taps of this size without appropriate torque control. Always use a cutting fluid or tapping compound appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Back the tap off a partial turn periodically to break chips and prevent binding. Inspect the tap for cracks or chipped flutes before use, as a damaged tap can seize in the hole and break.\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\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\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches (7\/8 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches (2-3\/8 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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\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\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\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: IRWIN HANSON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8028\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67906058387762,"sku":"8028","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3653f35f111f45fc3449a43e53687a3a.jpg?v=1791163729","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-hanson-8028-straight-flute-tap-10-24-unc-plug-chamfer","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
