Built from high-speed steel (HSS) with a bright, uncoated finish, this tap delivers consistent thread geometry in production and maintenance tapping applications. The 4-flute straight design provides stable cutting action and reliable chip evacuation in through-hole and blind-hole setups where chip packing is manageable. The H1 thread limit designation ensures close-tolerance thread fit suitable for standard fastener applications. At 2.375 inches overall length with a 0.875 inch thread length, this tap fits standard tap handles and machine spindle holders used in most shop environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for hand tapping and machine tapping operations in job shops, maintenance facilities, and light manufacturing settings. Its material compatibility covers a broad range of workpiece materials, making it a versatile choice for general-purpose threading work on aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, low-carbon steel, medium-carbon steel, and high-carbon steel. The plug chamfer  -  typically 3 to 5 lead threads  -  allows the tap to start easily in a drilled or bored hole and is the most common chamfer style selected for general tapping when the hole type is not a critical constraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-24 UNC thread form, right-hand direction, H1 thread limit for standard fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute straight flute geometry for stable cutting and chip control\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for easy hole entry in through-hole and blind-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright, uncoated finish  -  no coating buildup concerns on aluminum or soft metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through: No  -  suitable for manual or flood-cooled machine tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel workpieces.

Secure the workpiece fully before tapping; use a tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread finish. When hand tapping, back the tap off periodically to break chips. Never attempt to reverse a broken tap with pliers; use proper tap extractor tooling.\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\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\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 Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\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\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4724 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 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\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: 102\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Application\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum, Cast Aluminum, Cast Iron, High-Carbon Steel, Low-Carbon Steel, Medium-Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1004900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51739542782258,"sku":"1004900","price":17.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/326d7ab8b02d8071a42bd324ef4f1ff7_6eda5353-2dfb-46e2-bf69-77321c42b7d1.jpg?v=1788816006","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1004900-straight-flute-tap-10-24-unc-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
