    T-Handle Tap Wrenches

    Use with a tap to thread holes by hand. These wrenches are more compact than straight-handle tap wrenches, so they can be used to tap in tighter spaces. However, they provide less leverage.

    Air-Powered Tap Wrenches

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Tap Wrenches. Air-Powered Tap Wrenches.
    Powered by compressed air, these tap wrenches thread holes faster and with less effort than manual tap wrenches. They’re often used in place of manual tap wrenches when threading many holes and hard materials. Compared to drill presses and CNC machines, which are stationary, these wrenches are portable so you can take them to the part that needs to be threaded. To remove chips from your hole, press the reverse button to rotate the tap counterclockwise. Switch different taps in and out of the chuck when your tap is worn down or you need a new size. Use with machine tool taps and tapping lubricants for best results.
