Tap and Drill Bit Sets

Set with Metal Case

Set with Plastic Pouch

Drill and tap a variety of hole sizes. These taps and drill bits are for use on metal and plastic.

Carbon steel taps are for thread repair and occasional tapping.

High-speed steel taps and drill bits have a longer tool life than carbon steel. Uncoated high-speed steel taps and drill bits are strong enough for most jobs but don’t last as long as other high-speed steel taps and drill bits. Use them for small-scale jobs.

Taper-chamfer taps have 7-10 chamfered threads at the tip for cutting into the workpiece. They require less torque than other chamfer types, making them a good choice for starting threads and tapping through holes. However, a longer taper means that they cannot thread as close to the bottom of closed-end holes.

Plug-chamfer taps are a versatile choice for most tapping applications. With 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, they require moderate torque and are often used for start-to-finish tapping of through holes and closed-end holes. However, they do not start threads as easily as taper chamfers. When using them to tap closed-end holes, be sure to leave sufficient space at the bottom for chips to accumulate.

Bottoming-chamfer taps cut into the workpiece with just 1-2 chamfered threads. This short chamfer lets them thread holes closer to the bottom than other taps, but they require more torque to start threads.

Chip-Clearing Tap and Drill Bit Sets for Through-Holes

Also known as gun taps, the taps in these sets have spiral-point flutes that push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes. Because they don't need to be reversed to prevent buildup, they produce threads more efficiently than standard taps and are suitable for production work. Taps have a square shank for compatibility with tap wrenches and tap holders for drill presses and milling machines. With a plug chamfer, they have 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping. All taps and drill bits are made of high-speed steel for use on most metal and plastic.

Hex-Shank Tap and Drill Bit Sets for Drills and Screwdrivers

All taps and drill bits have a hex shank for direct connection to tools such as drills and power screwdrivers. They're made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic. Taps have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping, but they’ll need space at the bottom of closed-end holes for chips to accumulate.

Hex-Shank Combination Drill Bit/Tap Sets for Drills and Screwdrivers

Set with Plastic Case

Drill and tap holes in a range of diameters. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these tools can drill and tap holes in a single step. Connect them directly to drills, power screwdrivers, and other tools that accept a 1/4" hex shank. They're made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic. Their spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole. Recommended for use in through holes, all have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping.

Hex Shank Combination Drill Bits/Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers

With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these taps can drill and tap holes in a single step. A 1/4" hex shank connects them directly to tools such as drills and power screwdrivers. They're made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic.

Their spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole. All have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping.

Uncoated taps are strong enough for most tapping jobs but have the shortest tool life. Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated taps resist heat and wear better than uncoated taps, letting them last up to twice as long.

Spiral Flute

Drill holes and cut threads without switching tools. Made of high-speed steel, these taps are for use on most metal and plastic. The square shank is compatible with tap holders for drill presses and milling machines. All have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they're suitable for start-to-finish tapping.

Taps with spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole.
