They are also appropriate for tapping the vast majority of materials in through or blind holed conditions. Carbon steel Hand Taps come in three styles: Taper Style: Starts the thread square with the workpiece. Plug Style: Generally used in thru holes. Bottom Style: Generate the thread to the bottom of the hole. A tap set contains 1 taper, 1 plug and 1 bottoming tap.

I'm fairly new to the tap and die world but doing more custom work on my motorcycles has forced me to step up my game. Consequently, I had to learn about the different types of taps and how they are used. This type of tap is designed to cut threads all the way to the bottom of the hole you're cutting threads into. It's especially useful (at least in my case) for tapping shallow holes where every thread counts in order to secure a fastener. I've been able to use this tap a few times now and so far it has performed great. Pair it with good cutting oil and a lot of patience and you can get great threads on even some of the hardest of metals.

Had a set of TeraFlex Long arms that had rusted badly sitting in Salt water .. I did not think they where salvageable.. But he TAP was cheep so i thought i would give it a go...Wow was i wrong ...A Bit a Lube and the tap cleaned up the threads so well .. New arms would of been a couple of hundred bucks and this TAP is my new friend, no more cutting off control arms bungs and rebuilding arms ..The best big is this 1.25 x 12TPI is used in All Rough Country, Rubicon Express and Jonny Joints so very little money for a great tool... Just add a 1 inch Socket to the top and fits ya impact

Could not do the job. They seem to be bigger than other brands. After cutting threads with another brand, I couldn’t even screw these in the existing threads. Way too tight.

I'll start with the three tap set that is supposed to have a bottom tap in it. I got two taper taps and a plug tap. I really needed a bottom tap, it's why I bought this set in the first place.Second, I was waiting on my m10x1.0 hardware to show up, so I went ahead and drilled and tapped out my crankshaft for my flywheel bolts with these. Worked great, except that the thread pitch seemed off when I tried the bolts. Turns out these M10x1 marked taps are a perfect match to a 24tpi or 1.058 pitch. Garbage. And now I probably have ruined the crankshaft in my new engine with them.Stay far far far Away from these!!Update. Turns out these taps marked 10mx1, two of them were actually 3/8-24. I guess trust but verify everything anymore.

I wasn’t sure about getting three taps as I only wanted one. However getting all three types worked out really well. Very good quality, very sharp.

Only used it to chase threads in an old cast iron carburetor but it worked as it should. Project completed. Quality seems excellent, but haven't used it enough to rate higher.
