Built from high-speed steel with an oxide coating, this plug-chamfer tap is suited for general-purpose threading operations in machine shops and maintenance environments. It carries a 3B class of fit and an H3 thread limit, delivering threads within the tolerance band required for standard fastener assembly. The 4-flute straight flute geometry channels chips back through the flute rather than forward, making it best suited for through-hole applications or short blind holes where chip clearance is manageable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tap is used in production and maintenance machining where 5\/16-24 UNF threads are required. Compatible material applications include aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel. The plug chamfer, with its moderate lead-in, is the standard choice for starting threads in pre-drilled through holes and is the most commonly stocked chamfer style for general shop use. It is appropriate for both hand tapping and low-speed machine tapping setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5\/16-24 UNF thread form with right-hand direction for standard fastener compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer provides a balanced lead-in suitable for through-hole threading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction handles a broad range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOxide coating provides mild lubricity and corrosion resistance during storage and use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH3 thread limit and 3B class of fit meet standard tolerance requirements for fastener assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes allow effective chip evacuation in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for threading aluminum, cast aluminum, cast iron, high-carbon steel, low-carbon steel, and medium-carbon steel workpieces requiring 5\/16-24 UNF internal threads to a 3B class of fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways use the correct tap drill size for a 5\/16-24 UNF thread before tapping to ensure proper thread engagement and avoid tap breakage. Secure the workpiece firmly and use a tapping fluid or cutting oil appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tap life and improve thread quality. For machine tapping, set spindle speed conservatively and ensure the tap is properly aligned with the drilled hole to prevent cross-threading or breakage. When hand tapping, use a quality tap wrench and back off periodically to break chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16-24 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\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClass of Fit\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Limit\u003c\/strong\u003e: H3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Oxide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-23\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.318 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.375 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSquare Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.238 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.3228 inches\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: 101\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.048 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: OSG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1121001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"OSG","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51738116358450,"sku":"1121001","price":22.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/326d7ab8b02d8071a42bd324ef4f1ff7_0776c398-e234-45e1-862f-f186a8814045.jpg?v=1788796292","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/osg-1121001-straight-flute-tap-5-16-24-unf-plug-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
