Built from high speed steel with a bright finish, it delivers reliable cutting performance across a range of machinable metals. The plug chamfer provides a gradual thread lead-in, making it well suited for through-hole tapping applications. With 4 straight flutes and a right-hand thread direction, this tap produces 29-degree Acme thread forms to a Class 2G tolerance standard. It is used by machinists, tool-and-die tradespeople, and maintenance professionals who require precision internal threading in production or repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is suited for cutting 1\/2-10 Acme threads in through-hole applications in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The plug chamfer style  -  typically featuring a 3 to 5 thread lead  -  makes it a general-purpose choice for most tapping operations where the tap can pass fully through the workpiece. It is commonly applied in the fabrication of lead screws, jigs, fixtures, and mechanical assemblies that rely on Acme thread engagement for linear motion or clamping force.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-10 Acme thread form with 29-degree thread angle for standard Acme thread profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClass 2G tolerance for a general-purpose fit with moderate clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction for heat resistance and extended tool life in production tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBright finish  -  no coating  -  suitable for use with cutting fluids across a range of materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes for efficient chip evacuation in through-hole applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer for gradual thread engagement and reduced entry force\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style cutting tool for producing 1\/2-10 internal Acme threads in through-hole workpieces where a Class 2G fit is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tap is installed by machinists and tooling professionals using a tap wrench, tapping head, or CNC tapping attachment. Always use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce heat and extend tap life. Secure the workpiece firmly and ensure the tap is aligned perpendicular to the surface before engagement to avoid tap breakage or thread distortion. Follow all applicable shop safety procedures when operating tapping equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-10\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Angle\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29 degrees\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: 2G\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Straight\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: REGAL CUTTING TOOLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 015240AS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REGAL CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67908596662578,"sku":"015240AS","price":112.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/b7709bfc4e323bf857c0035694bc2070.jpg?v=1791184064","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/regal-cutting-tools-015240as-acme-thread-tap-1-2-10","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
