Cut and Repair Metal Threads Yourself

Neiko's 40-piece SAE Tap and Hexagon Die Set is a premium, precision tool kit for hand cutting, and repairing of metal threads in your home workshop or garage.

How Do Taps and Dies Cut?

Taps cut internal threads, such as those found in nuts or within pre-drilled holes. This is known as "tapping." Dies, cut external threads on rods, such as those on screws. This is known as "threading." Taps and dies are also used to repair damaged threads, known as "chasing" a thread. The included tap wrench, T-handle wrench, and screw pitch gauge literally put the power of your tap and dies in the palm of your hands, saving you time, money and hassles during your next project.

Maximized Durability and Usability

The cutting pieces of this tap die set feature high strength GCr15 alloy steel construction, and a titanium coating allowing them to cut through metals including cast iron, aluminum, brass, and carbon steel, while maintaining their durability and rust resistance. The taps and dies are sized from #4 to 1/2-inch, and feature coarse (UNC) fine (UNF) and national pipe (NPT) thread designations, ensuring usability in many hand threading applications.
