> 3 dayI 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.

> 3 dayIm 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.

> 3 dayI needed a reverse tap to adapt a weed cutter to work with fixed blade modification that replaces the string assembly. The kit used a 3/8 reverse bolt to attached the blades. Once I received the tap, I was able to cut threads required by the bolt. Worked out well. Have used the weed cutter several times and the bolt has not come loose.

> 3 dayThese taps were much easier to use than I had expected, not having tapped anything before. Although its not likely Ill use them often, if ever again, Im completely satisfied.

> 3 dayI spent over 10 years in a machine shop and can say these are legit taps. Not the cheap carbon ones...these are HSS and ground well. True gun tap, bottom tap and plug taps.

Greater than one weekI have bought products from this company before and have been satisfied with their products. With this product the diameter of the shanks was pictured as the minor thread diameter. The set arrived and the diameter of the shanks was the major diameter of the threads. This means that you cannot tap a deeper hole than the cutting length of the tap. This was contrary to Top Dogs question that was answered in 2020: Q: are the 1/4-20 taps like the web page picture, or like the customeer picture. In other words is the shank smaller than the minor diameter? A: As pictured By Top dog on December 7, 2020
