    Tap and Drill Bit Sets

    Metal Case

    Drill and tap a variety of hole sizes. These taps and drill bits are for use on metal and plastic.
    Uncoated Carbon Steel Tap—Uncoated carbon steel taps are for thread repair and occasional tapping.
    Uncoated High-Speed Steel Tap—Uncoated high-speed steel taps have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They are strong enough for most jobs but don’t last as long as other high-speed steel taps. Use them for small-scale jobs.
    Taper Chamfer—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—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—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.
    Black-Oxide High-Speed Steel Drill Bit—Black-oxide high-speed steel drill bits have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They cut with less friction than uncoated drill bits.

    Keyseat Cut Style

    Made of solid carbide, these cutters are harder, stronger, and more wear resistant than high-speed steel and cobalt steel for the longest life and best finish on hard material. Their extreme hardness means they are brittle, so a highly rigid setup, such as a CNC machine, is necessary to prevent the end mill from breaking. Use them to mill precise notches in rotary shafts to fit machine keys. They can also be used for slot milling.

    Keyseat Cut Style

    Use these end mills for general purpose keyseat cutting in a wide range of material, including aluminum, iron, and steel. An alternating right- and left-hand tooth style allows them to remove more material at high speeds than standard keyseat cutters. They mill precise notches in rotary shafts to fit machine keys and can also be used for slot milling.
