Drill America 3/8-16 UNC High Speed Steel Tap Set

Did the job.

First order had only two of the three taps, no bottoming tap. The replacement had only one tap. Ni shrink wrap or other packaging other than the plastic box for either set. So, the replacement is also going back. Dont waste your time ordering this.

Had no problem tapping a through hole in stainless steel. Use lots of oil (even cooking oil is OK).

Used the bottom tap & it worked just fine

All three styles of taps are included in this purchase.

Apparently there QC is not very astute. The tap packaging was labeled as 1/2-20, however the actual taps in the package. Well they were 1/2-13. Verify the actual item matches the package label, that is the lesson to learn from this.

The taps look OK. I have not yet used them. However, a set of 3 was advertised and I only got 2 in the package. It was not worth the effort to try to return them, but I feel cheated.

Im a machinist by trade. I cant say how they would hold up in a commercial setting but in my home shop environment they worked very well.

Good HSS taps for us

This three tap set could be very useful however the set was supposed to include a taper, plug, and bottoming tap. The set I received included two taper and one plug tap. No bottoming tap was included.
