Sterling Seal & Supply's spiral flute tap is a high-quality tool used for tapping threads in metal components, dies or molds, offering efficient thread forming while preventing chipping or breaking of material during drilling. The UNC size 10-24, 3 flute design allows it to be compatible with various materials such as brass, copper, aluminum or steel while delivering fast chip evacuation for a cleaner cutting experience. The bottoming feature ensures proper thread alignment by eliminating excess material on the bottom of the hole thus reducing dimensional errors. Made from vanadium high-speed steel, it provides superior hardness and resistance to wear allowing users to perform repetitive operations without compromising its sharpness or accuracy. Its bright finish provides lubrication properties while preventing corrosion for a longer lifespan even when used on stainless steels or other difficult materials. The 2B and 3B class of fit delivers a precise thread that adheres to industry standards making it ideal for use across machining, manufacturing, engineering or maintenance applications where accuracy is essential.
