Cleveland M10x1.50 Straight Flute Hand Tap
The Cleveland C54625 is a straight flute hand tap designed for cutting M10 metric threads with a 1.50 mm pitch. Made from high speed steel with a bright uncoated finish, it suits general-purpose threading in through holes and blind holes. The plug chamfer assists starting and is intended for hand operation or machine use with suitable holders. Right-hand cutting direction matches standard fastener threads.
Metric M10 thread limits and drill size
This tap produces a 6H class of fit at a D6 thread limit, requiring a 75 percent thread engagement. The correct drill size for the pilot hole is 8.50 mm. Overall length is 74.61 mm with a thread length of 31.75 mm. The straight flute design does not evacuate chips automatically, so the user must clear chips frequently to avoid tap breakage or thread damage.
Plug chamfer for starting and through holes
The plug chamfer provides a moderate lead that helps the tap start straight in the workpiece. It is the standard choice for through holes and for blind holes with sufficient clearance at the bottom. Buyers who need a taper chamfer for difficult starts or a bottoming chamfer for threads close to the bottom of a blind hole should select a different chamfer style.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the M10x1.50 tap or a different thread size?
Choose the M10x1.50 tap when you need a metric M10 thread with a 1.50 mm pitch; other sizes will not match this thread specification.
What does the 75 percent thread drill size of 8.50 mm mean when I use this tap?
Drill the hole to 8.50 mm before tapping to produce a thread with roughly 75 percent thread engagement for the M10x1.50 size.
How does the straight flute design affect chip removal on this plug tap?
Straight flutes push chips forward through the hole, making this plug tap suited for through holes where chips can exit the far end.
