Metallics 1032CTTE – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size does the Metallics 1032CTTE tap cut?
The 1032CTTE cuts a 10-32 machine screw thread, which is the standard thread used for grounding screws and for mounting devices and covers to boxes and enclosures. Order it under part number 1032CTTE.
2) Can I use the Metallics 10-32 taper tap to chase out a stripped grounding screw hole in a steel box?
That is the normal job for it. The 1032CTTE is carbon steel and cuts a 10-32 thread, so it will clean up or re-cut 10-32 threads in a sheet steel box, enclosure flange, or strut. Carbon steel taps suit mild steel and aluminum; for stainless or hardened material a high speed steel tap holds up better.
3) Is this a taper tap or a bottoming tap?
Taper type. A taper tap has a long chamfered lead on the first several threads, so it starts easily in a drilled hole and is the one to reach for when you can thread all the way through. If you need full threads to the bottom of a blind hole, a taper tap will not get you there, you want a bottoming tap for that.
4) Does the 1032CTTE tap come with a tap handle or wrench?
No. The 1032CTTE is the tap only, one piece in a pouch. You will need a T-handle tap wrench or a small adjustable tap wrench sized for a 10-32 tap to drive it, plus the correct tap drill for the hole if you are threading fresh material.
5) How many taps come in a Metallics 1032CTTE pack?
One tap per pack, supplied in a pouch. If you are stocking a service van or multiple crews, order the quantity you need by the piece.
