Taps and dies are tools used to create screw threads in metalwork projects.
A tap cuts or forms threads on the inside of a hole (acting as a nut), while a die creates or repairs matching bolts.
Both tools can be used with cutting oil to clean dirty, rusted, or worn threads in old nuts and bolts, such as car spark plug threads that suffer from corrosion and carbon buildup.
Made from high-quality alloy steel, suitable for metals like carbon and alloy steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and bronze.
Includes three and four-flute plug taps and dies with tapered coarse and fine threads to assist in aligning and starting the tap into an untapped hole.
Ideal for cutting new threads or chasing lightly damaged threads on old screws, spark plugs, nuts, and bolts.
Adjustable tap and die wrench handles provide a secure, slip-free grip for demanding tasks.
Tools are neatly stored in a clearly-labeled, organized, and accessible iron case.
Includes taper, intermediate, and plug taps, as well as a die for each size.
