10-32 (STI) to be plugged

Post Body
Hey Engineers,
I have a 10-32 STI that I’ll be needed to plug. I am no longer using this threaded hole in my aluminum plate and I’ll be needed to plug it up to cover it.
I plan to ream the hole out (threaded hole) then using the same material as my plate to use a rod to perform a press fit to plug the hole.
My question is how can I technically go about this? What reamer should I use? And what press fit tolerance should I use?
Any guidance is much appreciated.
Thank you?
