Straight Flute Tap: #10-24 UNC, 4 Flutes, Bottoming, 2/2B/3B Class of Fit, High Speed Steel, Bright/Uncoated MPN:302211

The straight flute tap is a cutting tool designed for use in tapping holes in various materials ranging from plastics to metal composites including steel, aluminum or brass among others used within automotive, industrial, and consumer products markets, among others. It features an UNC (Unified Coarse) threads 10-24 inches in diameter with four flutes for efficient chip evacuation resulting from machining, ensuring ease of use, performance and longevity reducing friction while threading, minimizing the risk of breakage or damaging threads during operation. The bottoming style of tap provides precise start allowing users to create smooth and accurate tapped holes without slippage on previously tapped materials. The 2/2B/3B class of fit delivers proper alignment preventing misalignment resulting from uneven threads minimizing defects ensuring compliance with application requirements. Made from high-speed steel material offers superior hardness, wear resistance, and heat treatment maintaining sharp edges enhancing thread creation while being resistant to corrosion or chemical exposure in demanding environments satisfying user needs.
