Ratcheting Tap and Die Set

August 11, 2023

Only used it once to tap a 7/16 x 16 hole, and 4- #8x32 holes in 1/2" mild steel plate. A large tap should not be a problem, small holes, more so. Not with this set. I never felt the tap would break and it produced a sharp thread profile. Go slow and use plenty of cutting oil. This set will last me my lifetime for my johnny homeowner shop. The ratcheting die holder is a nice touch as well as offering two collet type tap holders - much better than the T handle type that always seems to loosen at the wrong time. I would buy this again.

Top Quality Set

I’ve used these multiple times now since purchased. Holding up well. Very durable. Threads are very clean and precise. Came packaged well and in included case. Case is very nice, everything snaps in its place and stays put. Other set’s I’ve used when you open the case (if even had a case) parts would fall out. This is definitely a more durable set than my previous ones. If you’re looking for a good tap n die set here it is. Just get it, you won’t regret it.
