It produces a 10-24 UNC right-hand thread using three flutes and a plug chamfer, which provides a gradual thread entry suited to through-holes and moderately deep blind holes. The tap is manufactured from high-speed steel and carries a Thread Limit of H2, indicating a ground thread tolerance appropriate for standard UNC fits. Overall length is 2.375 inches with a thread length of 0.875 inches. Installation is performed by licensed machinists or skilled maintenance technicians using a standard tap wrench or machine holder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is applied in general-purpose tapping operations across metalworking, HVAC fabrication, plumbing, and electrical panel assembly where 10-24 UNC fasteners are specified. It is rated for use in aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. The straight flute geometry is well suited to materials that produce short, brittle chips, and the plug chamfer makes it a practical first-choice tap for most shop and field threading tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-24 UNC thread form with right-hand direction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for gradual thread engagement in through-holes and shallow blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree straight flutes optimized for short-chip materials including cast iron and carbon steels\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eH2 thread limit for standard UNC tolerance fits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction provides wear resistance across rated material applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement simplifies use in manual and standard machine setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated for tapping aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel.

Apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend tap life and reduce the risk of galling or breakage. Back the tap off periodically when hand-tapping to break chips. Never force a tap against resistance; back out and clear chips before continuing.\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\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\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: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\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\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 103\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: 1045702\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51740890956082,"sku":"1045702","price":24.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/5762ad16ede67c944ff2984f2a365560.jpg?v=1788828166","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1045702-straight-flute-plug-tap-10-24-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
