- Our hand threading dies are round, the most common and convenient thread dies that help in performing quality work.
Multipurpose Accompanying Tools

- Gunpla die holder or stock is used in conjunction with a die to create external or male threads, often used on plain rods.
- Our durable screw pitch gauge that will help in quickly and accurately determining the pitch or lead of a screw thread.

- We added a T-handle tap wrench to the set to work with taps, reamers and extractors.

Good to have a complete set in a box. Just minor niggles.I probably didn’t need a set as full as this with options for coarse and fine threads as well but the smaller partial sets often don’t come in a case which can be a pit of pain. Have only used one of the taps so far with no problems.Just a couple of minor niggles – the size markings on a couple of the smaller taps are very faint and difficult to read. Also, the housing cutouts in the box are oversized and don’t have a ‘click in’ action that you might find in a screwdriver set case. Because of this the smaller taps tend to fall out of their slots and if you carry the box around the contents will need a bit of sorting out when you open it. To combat this I glued a bit of plastic foam into the inside of the lid to hold everything in place.

THREADERGood bit a kit, but don’t think it will thread very much in the future, so may not last for ever, but at this price I wouldn’t expect it too. Did what I needed it for, but if ya doing this alot, then maybe invest in a better built set.

Good valueI’ve re-threaded some damaged components with this tap and die set with good results. The taps and dies were sharp, precise and good quality. The tap and dies holders are fairly poor quality, but sufficient for occasional use. Overall, I’m happy with the set as it was good value for the price paid. It will be useful to have in my home workshop for occasional use. It’s not professional quality, but that’s to be expected at this price point. Having said that, it has done a good job on the two occasions I’ve needed to use it.

Fine apart from the die and tap wrenches.The set arrived promptly and in good order.The taps and dies are as I had hoped, but the wrenches are not as good as they might be. The handles are too short when trying to cut threads greater than M4, the effort need to turn the dies in particular for an M8 thread was a lot greater than I would expect. In addition, the ends of the handles have been knurled and have quite a rough finish. After I had cut a centimetre or so of thread my hands were very sore and I ended up having to wear a pair of strong gardening gloves.So basically, good taps and dies, pity about the wrenches. Hence my 3 stars rather than the full 5 I would have awarded them otherwise.

Good for the MoneyFor the money I thought it was pretty good really, obviously if you’re cutting threads for a living you’d pay a bit more.I needed to shorten a tube that held up a chandelier and wasn’t sure what size thread it was.So looked for a cheapish Tap and Die kit with all the sizes around 10mm.This kit had what I needed and saved me from having to buy new light fittings.My only criticism would be that the Tap and Die Wrenches are a bit small so you would struggle to turn them with the bigger Taps and Dies.A Chuck type Tap holder is supplied for the very small Tap sizes but it doesn’t go small enough to grip the smallest Taps in the set.For me it’s paid for itself already.

Does the job.Needed a tap to put a thread in to fix a table. Gauge for thread worked perfectly as did the tap. Worked first time and the foot screws in and out freely.Exactly as described, feels like quality kit, worked perfectly.
