    Tap, Die, and Drill Bit Sets

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tap, Die, and Drill Bit Sets.
    Cut and repair threads and drill holes in many different sizes. Tap and die wrenches are included. The dies are hex shaped for use with conventional wrenches. The taps are made of carbon steel and are recommended for thread repair and occasional tapping.
    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.

    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.

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.
    Uncoated High-Speed Steel Drill Bit—Uncoated high-speed steel drill bits 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 drill bits. Use them for small-scale jobs.

    Chip-Clearing Tap and Drill Bit Sets for Through Holes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tap and Drill Bit Sets. 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.

    Quick-Change Hex Shank Drill Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Drill Taps. Quick-Change Hex Shank Drill Taps for Drills and Screwdrivers.
    Save time when you need to change drill taps frequently. The grooved shank snaps directly into drills, power screwdrivers, and other tools that accept a 1/4" hex shank. However, these taps aren’t rated for impact drivers. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, they can drill and tap holes in a single step. They’re made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic.
    These taps have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they’re suitable for start-to-finish tapping.
    Uncoated High-Speed Steel—Uncoated taps are strong enough for most tapping jobs but have the shortest tool life.
    Spiral Flute—Taps with spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole.

    Tapping Threaded Insert Assortments for Soft Metal

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Threaded Inserts. Tapping Threaded Insert Assortments for Soft Metal.
    Cut a variety of thread sizes into aluminum and other soft metal—no taps required. These inserts cut their own threads and lock into material, so they won’t budge when you install or remove a screw. To install inserts with a wrench, thread an insert and two hex nuts onto a bolt. Then, grip and turn the top nut to drive into a drilled hole. If you need to add a lot of threaded connections quickly, use an installation tool (not included) with a ratchet wrench or drill press. These inserts are comparable to Tap-Lok inserts.

    Drill Chucks with BT Taper Integral Arbor

    Image of Product. Top orientation. Drill Chucks. Drill Chucks with BT Taper Integral Arbor, Keyless Chuck.

    Keyless

    Chuck

    Limit runout and slippage under heavy cutting forces from CNC machines. These chucks have an integrated arbor for a one-piece design that makes them more accurate and compact than chucks with a separate arbor. Made of hardened steel, they resist wear from repeated use. Their shank is precision ground to the industry standard AT3 tolerance for a tight fit in your spindle. They meet JIS standards for compatibility across machines with BT spindles. They have a threaded hole that accepts retention knobs, so they connect to your machine’s drawbar system.
    Keyless Chuck—Keyless chucks let you swap bits in and out with a quick twist of the sleeve. As torque increases, their grip will tighten. These chucks only tighten in the clockwise direction, so they may loosen under heavy reverse loads, such as during left-hand drilling. They’re balanced to grade 6.3, so they’re good for most drilling tasks.

    Tap holes with a range of thread sizes 15 times faster than by hand. Made with an oversized shank and hardened high-speed steel, the taps in these sets are built to handle the high torque of impact wrenches to cut material quickly. Your wrench’s rapid hammering keeps these taps moving forward for smooth, continuous cutting. Those rapid blows also help break and clear chips as you cut, so you don’t need to pause and reverse, even in large holes and tough materials. This also means the tap is less likely to jam on chips and snap.
    You’ll need a VersaDrive chuck (sold separately) to install these taps into your impact wrench. You can also get chucks for impact drivers (sold separately).
    Hardened High-Speed Steel—Multiple Tap Thread Sizes
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Run at higher speeds and last twice as long as uncoated taps.
    Taper Chamfer—Good for both starting holes and threading through holes. These taps have the longest taper to gradually engage with the material, reducing the force needed to turn them. They can't reach the bottom of blind holes, however, so you will likely need to finish with a bottoming-chamfer tap.

    Port Counterbores

    Cut precise port holes for hydraulic fittings. These counterbores meet aerospace, military, or international specifications for leakproof port holes, so fittings stay sealed over time, even during sudden pressure and vibration. A pilot guides the counterbore as it finishes the hole to the exact size you need for your fitting.
    You’ll need a step drill bit (sold separately) to rough out a hole with the right shape for your counterbore to finish. To complete your hole with threads, add a thread mill (sold separately).

    Cut the cleanest, quickest threads in a range of sizes without ever stopping for chips. Made with an oversized shank and hardened high-speed steel, the taps in these sets are built to handle the high torque of impact wrenches for smooth, continuous cutting. The rapid hammering breaks up chips and spiral flutes pull them out of the hole, so you never have to pause and reverse to clear them. They can thread both blind and through holes 15 times faster than by hand. They’re a good choice for threading large holes and working with hard metals.
    You’ll need a VersaDrive chuck (sold separately) to install these taps into your impact wrench.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Run at higher speeds and last twice as long as uncoated taps.
    Spiral Flute for Blind Holes—Pull chips back toward the tap so they won't build up in blind holes. When tapping brittle material like iron that creates fine or powdery debris, choose a straight-flute tap.
    Plug Chamfer—Our go-to chamfer type. With a longer taper than a bottoming chamfer, they are easier to turn but won't thread as close the bottom of a hole.

    Cut a range of hole sizes two times faster than power drills, then thread them 15 times faster than by hand. Made with an oversized shank and hardened high-speed steel, the tools in these sets are built to handle the high torque of impact wrenches without snapping. The drill bits have a built-in pilot with a stepped tip that centers the bit, prevents slipping, and drills with one third the pressure of standard bits. Your wrench’s rapid hammering keeps the taps moving forward for smooth, continuous cutting. Those rapid blows also help break and clear chips as you cut, so you don’t need to pause and reverse, even in large holes and tough materials. Since your wrench absorbs kickback, it won’t fight you when a cutting tool snags, reducing wrist strain and fatigue over long jobs.
    You’ll need a VersaDrive chuck (sold separately) to install the bits and taps into your impact wrench. You can also get chucks for impact drivers and magnetic-base drills (both sold separately). For jobs that don’t require the torque of an impact tool, you can fit these drill bits and taps directly into a 1/2" chuck on a standard power drill.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated Hardened High-Speed Steel Tools—Titanium nitride (TiN)-coated hardened high-speed steel tools have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They resist heat and wear better than uncoated tools, letting them last up to twice as long.
    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.

    Impact Wrench Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets. Impact Wrench Tap, Drill Bit, and Reamer Sets, 13 Pieces.

    13 Pieces

    With everything but the impact wrench, these sets are the fastest way to prepare holes with a hand tool. They include a selection of cutting tools and a chuck that lets you swap them in and out of your impact wrench. Made with hardened steel, the cutting tools are built to handle the high torque of the wrench without snapping, even in hard metals. This also means the bits cut holes two times faster than with a power drill, and the taps thread holes 15 times faster than with a tap wrench. The rapid hammering breaks and clears chips as you work to prevent jams. Since your wrench absorbs kickback, it won’t fight you if a cutting tool snags, reducing wrist strain and fatigue over long jobs.
    The chucks hold any tool with a VersaDrive hex shank—including countersinks and extractors—so just one chuck and wrench handle any cutting task.
    13 Pieces—Includes a range of drill bits, taps, and step reamers. All cutting tools are coated with titanium nitride (TiN) to hold up at higher speeds and last longer than uncoated and oxide-coated bits, especially on tough materials like hardened steel and nickel.
