Threading tool for 7/32-24 holes
This Drill America plug hand tap cuts internal threads in a 7/32-24 size. Made from high-speed steel, it is designed for general machine tapping or CNC tapping. The plug style suits through-hole applications where the tap passes completely through the workpiece. It handles the vast majority of materials in both through and blind holed conditions.
For machinists cutting 7/32-24 threads
This tap suits professionals and hobbyists creating new threads or repairing damaged ones in a 7/32-24 specification. It works under hand or power operation for standard tapping tasks. Buyers who need to start threads square with the workpiece or generate threads to the bottom of a blind hole should look at different taper styles.
Plug style for through-hole use
The plug taper is the single specification that decides fit; it is generally used in thru holes where the tool exits the material. This distinguishes it from taper styles that start the thread square or bottom styles that reach full depth in blind holes. Select this style only when the hole passes completely through the part.

Questions about this item
Does the 7/32-24 HSS plug tap generate noticeable heat or vibration during extended hand tapping?
High-speed steel construction resists heat build-up during prolonged hand or powered tapping, and the plug chamfer reduces cutting force in through holes, keeping vibration low for all-day use.
What tap wrench or holder is required to drive the 7/32-24 shank?
The tap accepts a standard adjustable tap wrench or T-handle sized for a 7/32 inch shank; no specialised holder or power-tapping attachment is needed.
Can the 7/32-24 plug tap cut threads in an existing 7/32-24 hole made with an older carbon-steel tap?
Yes, the HSS plug tap will cleanly chase or deepen threads in a pre-existing 7/32-24 hole, and its harder cutting edges outlast older carbon-steel tools.
