    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.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated High-Speed Steel Tap—Titanium nitride (TiN)-coated high-speed steel taps have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They resist heat and wear better than uncoated taps, letting them last up to twice as long.
    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.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated High-Speed Steel Drill Bit—Titanium nitride (TiN)-coated high-speed steel drill bits have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They last longer and can drill at higher speeds than uncoated and oxide-coated drill bits.

    Quick-Change Hex Shank Drill Tap Sets for Drills and Screwdrivers

    Drill and tap holes in a range of diameters. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, the taps in these sets can drill and tap holes in a single step. They also save you time when changing from tool to tool. The grooved shank snaps directly to drills, power screwdrivers, and other tools that accept a 1/4" hex shank. However, these taps aren’t rated for impact drivers. They’re made of high-speed steel and are for use on most metal and plastic.
    Recommended for use in through holes, these taps have a plug chamfer with 3-5 chamfered cutting threads, so they’re suitable for start-to-finish tapping.
    Spiral Flute—Taps with spiral flutes keep chips clear by drawing them back toward the tap and out of the hole.

    Impact Wrench Tap and Drill Bit Sets

    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.

    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.
    28 Pieces—Includes drill bits, taps, and step reamers plus reamers for hole alignment, drill taps, and hollow core cutters to further speed up your jobs. Use the drill taps to cut threaded holes in one smooth, continuous pass. The reamers enlarge holes and correct misalignment or overlap. The hollow-core cutters attach directly to your power drill, so you can form burr-free holes without a magnetic-base drill. Unlike drill bits, they cut only on the periphery of the hole and produce a solid slug, so they’re faster and leave a smoother edge. Two additional chucks let you use all these cutting tools with an impact driver and magnetic-base drill, too.
