Norseman Drill and Tool Type 24-AG Fractional Gold Oxide HSS Straight Flute Plug Hand Taps

Norseman Type 24-AG Plug Hand Taps – Gold Oxide Finish

Precision Threading for Fractional Inch Applications

The Norseman Drill and Tool Type 24-AG Fractional HSS Straight Flute Plug Hand Taps are engineered for accurate, durable internal threading in a wide range of industrial materials. These taps are designed with a plug chamfer, making them ideal for general-purpose tapping in through-holes or blind holes with adequate clearance.

Plug Chamfer Design for Versatile Threading

Ideal for Through and Blind Holes

With a 3–5 thread chamfer, the plug design allows for faster thread engagement than taper taps while still offering better alignment than bottoming styles. This makes the Type 24-AG tap an excellent all-around choice for workshop or field use.

• Suitable for through-holes and deep blind holes

• Reduced torque for smoother cutting

• Provides better control during hand tapping

Gold Oxide Finish for Enhanced Performance

Increased Lubricity and Toughness

These taps feature a gold oxide finish, a low-temperature stress-relieving treatment that enhances tool performance by reducing friction and increasing wear resistance. The result is longer tool life, improved chip evacuation, and reduced galling—especially in tough or gummy materials.

• Enhanced surface hardness for extended durability

• Reduces friction and heat during cutting

• Increases lubricity for smoother chip flow
