Built from high-speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it cuts 3\/8-24 UNF right-hand threads and is suited for through-hole and blind-hole tapping in production and maintenance applications. The plug chamfer style provides a moderate lead-in, making it a versatile choice for most general tapping work. With 4 flutes and an H2 thread limit, this tap delivers consistent thread tolerance across materials including aluminum, cast iron, and low-, medium-, and high-carbon steel. Overall length is 2-15\/16 inches with a thread length of 1-1\/4 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is intended for use in machine tapping or hand tapping operations where a standard UNF thread form is required. The 3\/8-24 UNF specification is common in automotive, mechanical assembly, and general fabrication work. The H2 thread limit makes it appropriate for standard tolerance fits in steel and aluminum components. It is well suited for job shops, maintenance and repair operations, and production environments working across a broad range of workpiece materials including cast aluminum and cast iron.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-24 UNF right-hand thread form with H2 thread limit for standard tolerance control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides moderate lead-in for versatile use in through and blind holes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability across ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes for efficient chip formation in short-chipping materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for use with standard cutting fluids\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design  -  compatible with conventional flood or drip lubrication\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eRated for tapping aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel.

Always secure the workpiece and ensure the tap is properly aligned before engagement to avoid tap breakage. Apply an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread finish. Follow applicable shop safety procedures when handling sharp cutting tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24 UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThreads per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\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 Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H2\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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-15\/16 inches (2.937 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/4 inches (0.937 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.381 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.286 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.4134 inches\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: 0.075 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: 101\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: 1111600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51743331090738,"sku":"1111600","price":26.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/4a42cb7f6a0e832f0cfd45f2bdd1a266.jpg?v=1788845743","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1111600-straight-flute-tap-3-8-24-unf-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
