Drill America - DWT57129 1/4-20 High Speed Steel 2 Flute Spiral Point Tap, DWT Series

This tap held up and did not break when using. I had broke two other brand taps and this tap held up and did not break while using it on aluminum.

I liked the concept but both of the taps broke when I first tried to use them. I used the #7 drill bit supplied by the same company too. I used tap magic religiously and tried not to force the tap while breaking the chips... definitely a waste of money. At least the drill bits are holding up since they are suppose to be m42 cobalt steel. Now on the hunt to find a different brand ¼x 20 tap.

I had 4 of them. All did excellent job for my business. Thanks

Really nice quality tap for the price.

No

While taps break, it sucks this one broke so quickly. If I had more than one to review I would either give it less or more stars, but since I cant properly test if it was just a fluke, I give it 3 stars.

Quick shipping. Only used it for a single cross threaded hole. Fixed my issue in 2 minutes. So worth the $7!!!!!!!

Put threads in a piece of metal

ordered a pack of 12 taps. assumed they would all be right hand. some of them were left hand and useless.

I threaded about 5 inches of hole before she got slow. Was able to touch up with angle grinder a few times and get another 5 inches of tapping. I was impressed that the tap didnt require much backing up to break the cutting, was able to drive ahead for many turns at a time.
