Built from high-speed steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this plug-chamfer tap is suited for through-holes and blind holes where a plug lead is appropriate. It measures 2.38 inches overall length with a thread length of 0.875 inches (7\/8 inches) and a shank diameter of 0.194 inches. The H3 thread limit provides controlled oversize tolerance for consistent class 2B and 3B thread fit. Machinists, tool-and-die makers, and maintenance technicians install this tap by hand with a tap wrench or T-handle driver.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is specified for hand-tapping operations in cast iron and non-ferrous metals, making it a practical choice for general machining, maintenance, repair, and fabrication work. It falls within the Kennametal Series 5305 and 5303 tap families. Applications include creating machine screw threads in brackets, housings, panels, and fixtures where the standard 10-24 UNC thread form is required. The right-hand thread direction and plug chamfer allow easy starting in pre-drilled holes sized to standard tap drill specifications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides 3-5 thread lead for easy hole entry and alignment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit delivers controlled oversize tolerance for class 2B and 3B fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles cast iron and non-ferrous metal applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-flute straight-flute geometry designed for hand-tapping operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, 10-24 UNC thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for hand-tapping 10-24 UNC threads in cast iron and non-ferrous metals.

Always use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend tool life. Back the tap off periodically to break chips and prevent binding, particularly in deeper holes. Inspect the tap for wear or damage before each use and replace if chipping or thread deformation is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\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\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2B and 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer Type\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\u003eFlute Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.38 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\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\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cast Iron, Non-Ferrous Metal\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: 5305, 5303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.2 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: KENNAMETAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1541654\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"KENNAMETAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743354847538,"sku":"1541654","price":27.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/600ef7240c8e1ebe93dbea365503bd23.jpg?v=1788846070","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/kennametal-1541654-hand-tap-10-24-unc-plug-rh-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
