    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.

    Chip-Clearing Tap Sets

    A range of sizes that remove chips so they don’t ruin the threads or jam the tap. The spiral-point flutes force chips through the hole to prevent buildup and create threads faster than standard taps. Also known as gun taps.

    Taps

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Taps. Taps.
    Cut threads into holes so screws, bolts, and rods fit snugly. Our basic taps have straight flutes that are good for most jobs.
    High-Speed Steel—The most versatile taps resist heat and wear to stay sharp. They’re good for most metals and plastic.
    Cobalt Steel—These taps resist higher temperatures and and last twice as long as high-speed steel taps. They thread hard materials such as iron and hardened steel without damaging their cutting edges.
    Carbon Steel—The economical choice for occasional hand tapping. These work on most metals and plastic but will dull more quickly than other taps.
    Uncoated—The economical choice, these won't last as long as coated taps.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Run at higher speeds and last twice as long as uncoated taps.
    Titanium Carbon Nitride (TiCN) Coated—Resist heat, chipping, and wear for three times the life of 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.
    Plug Chamfer—Our go-to chamfer type, these thread both through holes and blind holes. The tapered section is shorter than a taper chamfer and longer than bottoming chamfer. As a result, they're easier to turn than bottoming taps but require more force than taper taps.
    Bottoming Chamfer—Cut all the way to the bottom of blind holes with taps that have the shortest taper. Since these require the most force to turn, they’re often used to finish holes started by taper- or plug-chamfer taps.
    Number of Flutes—Taps with fewer flutes have more space to capture chips, so you won’t have to clear them as often. However, they can be more difficult to keep straight in the hole.
    Taps Sold as Sets—Include one tap of each chamfer type.

    Drill and tap a variety of hole sizes. These taps and drill bits are for use on metal and plastic.
    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.
    Uncoated Cobalt Steel Tap—Uncoated cobalt steel taps have higher strength and wear resistance than carbon steel and high-speed steel taps.
    Black-Oxide High-Speed Steel Tap—Black-oxide high-speed steel taps have a longer tool life than carbon steel. They cut with less friction than uncoated taps.
    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.
    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.

    Remove long, stringy chips to produce cleaner threads than standard taps. The flute design prevents buildup to protect the quality of the threads and avoid damage to the tap. Since you don’t need to reverse these taps to extract chips, they also create threads faster.

    Spiral-Point Flute for Through Holes—Push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes. Also known as gun 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.
    Bottoming Chamfer—These taps have the shortest taper to thread close to the bottom of blind holes. They require the most force to turn, so they’re often used to finish holes started by plug-chamfer taps.

    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.

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

    Spiral Flute for Blind Holes

    Made of a high-vanadium alloy, these taps are harder and more wear-resistant than other high-speed steel taps. The flute design prevents buildup to protect the quality of the threads and avoid damage to the tap. Since you don’t need to reverse these taps to extract chips, they also create threads faster.
    High-Speed Steel—The most versatile taps resist heat and wear to stay sharp. They’re good for most metals and plastic.
    Black Oxide—The dark finish increases wear resistance and reduces friction to improve chip flow, so these taps can last 50% longer than uncoated taps.
    Spiral-Point Flute for Through Holes—Push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes. Also known as gun 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.

    Chip-Clearing Taps for Aluminum, Brass, and Bronze

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Contains Annotated. Taps. Chip-Clearing Taps for Aluminum, Brass, and Bronze, Spiral Flute for Through Holes.

    Spiral Flute for Through Holes

    Long, gummy strands from soft metals won’t get stuck on the tap or in the hole. With two layers of slippery coating over spiral flutes, these taps prevent chip buildup that can harm the threads and the tap.
    Cobalt Steel—Tough and wear resistant, cobalt taps last twice as long as high-speed steel. They also can run at higher temperatures without damage to their cutting edges.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN) Coated—Run at higher speeds and last twice as long as uncoated taps.
    Spiral Flute for Through Holes—Left-hand flutes push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes.
    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.

    Long-Reach Taps

    Thread holes that are hard to access or where obstructions make it difficult to turn a tap wrench. About twice as long other taps, these get you inside machines or through assemblies such as pulleys and belts. They have straight flutes that are good for most jobs.
    High-Speed Steel—The most versatile taps resist heat and wear to stay sharp. They’re good for most metals and plastic.
    Plug Chamfer—Our go-to chamfer type, these thread both through holes and blind holes. The tapered section is shorter than a taper chamfer and longer than bottoming chamfer. As a result, they're easier to turn than bottoming taps but require more force than taper taps.
    Bottoming Chamfer—Cut all the way to the bottom of blind holes with taps that have the shortest taper. Since these require the most force to turn, they’re often used to finish holes started by taper- or plug-chamfer taps.

    Create left-hand threads that prevent counter-clockwise rotating parts, such as flywheels and propellers, from loosening and spinning off. These taps have straight flutes that are good for most jobs.
    High-Speed Steel—The most versatile taps resist heat and wear to stay sharp. They’re good for most metals and plastic.
    Uncoated—The economical choice, these won't last as long as coated 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.
    Plug Chamfer—Our go-to chamfer type, these thread both through holes and blind holes. The tapered section is shorter than a taper chamfer and longer than bottoming chamfer. As a result, they're easier to turn than bottoming taps but require more force than taper taps.

    Push out chips while threading holes that are hard to reach or obstructed. These taps are double the length of standard taps to reach inside machines or through assemblies such as pulleys and belts. The flute design prevents buildup to protect the quality of the threads and avoid damage to the tap. Since you don’t need to reverse these taps to extract chips, they also create threads faster.
    Cobalt Steel—These taps resist higher temperatures and and last twice as long as high-speed steel taps. They thread hard materials such as iron and hardened steel without damaging their cutting edges.
    Black Oxide—The dark finish increases wear resistance and reduces friction to improve chip flow, so these taps can last 50% longer than uncoated taps.
    Spiral-Point Flute for Through Holes—Push chips ahead of the tap and out of through holes. Also known as gun taps.

    Spiral Flute for Blind Holes

    Avoid heat buildup that can deform material and prematurely wear taps when threading nickel alloys. The body on these taps narrows closer to the flutes for better coolant flow and less contact with the workpiece. Spiral flutes prevent stuck chips that can slow you down and decrease the quality of the threads.

    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, they’re not rated for impact drivers. With a drill bit point to drive into the workpiece, these taps 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.
    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 High-Speed Steel—Uncoated taps are strong enough for most tapping jobs but have the shortest tool life.
    Titanium Nitride (TiN)-Coated High-Speed Steel—Titanium Nitride (TiN) coated taps resist heat and wear better than uncoated taps, letting them last up to twice as long.
