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

Did the job.

Package arrived, but not as described. A sleeve sized for one tap was labeled for a set. Only the taper tap was in the sleeve. Processed a return Some other sizes ordered were OK.

Got a set of two tapers and a plug. Complained and got another set as replacement. Same thing. If you really need a bottoming tap I guess you need to order it separate. Quality was not bad.

I ordered a set of three and just got two. Thats unacceptable

Used the bottom tap & it worked just fine

I needed the bottom tap and used all three. they worked great with ease.

I love the different coarse of cut on each tap. Cut straight through solid steel and each finer tap made a clean cut for my bolts to snug up into.

I bought the set to chase some threads and finish threads in a blind hole. They worked great and cut new threads easily. I only used the taps for one hole, but they are still sharp and show no signs of damage.

I used grade 8 bolts into schedule 40 pipe after drilling and tapping. The tap started and cleaned easy.

I expected to get a pack of three bottoming taps like the photo indicates. I had searched for bottoming taps and when I saw a photo with three bottoming taps I ordered it. Needless to say I was surprised to discover that only one of the taps is a bottoming tap. The others are a tapered tap and a plug tap. I went back to the original sales description and scanned through all the photos. In every photo where three taps are displayed side by side all the taps are flat nosed indicating that they are bottoming taps, however, in one of the photos the set is described as consisting of one bottoming tap, one tapered tap and one plug tap. Note to seller: when you display a set of items that are different from each other then display the items contained in the set and not a photo of one item repeated three times.
