I only had a 1/2" brass pipe that I needed to cut so I decided Going for a softer metal and buying 2 different sets of ratchet dies, I was able to get the job done. No, none of them were threaded deep enough (I ended up testing it on 3 ends of brass tubing with 2 female connectors). The cut ones Threads came out clean and properly spaced, but they just weren't deep enough. And each 1/2" punch from the sets gave the same results. Turns out the $50 Goflame and Goplus ratchet sets are identical products, although sold under slightly different names in different places, so I ordered a Ridgid ratchet and a matching 1/2" die too m 3 times the price, and the die matched the existing thread. I cut off about half until I met resistance. I was then able to get the threading done properly with relative ease and my PEX fitting screwed in easily and sealed tightly. Ridgid is a great product even though I only had to cut one thread. Whistle, it was worth the extra cost because it had the right threads and the cheaper products just don't. The build quality/weight of the Ridgid Day and Night is better than the kits I've mentioned here. I would give cheaper 4 or 5 star kits for homeowners needs if the threads were deep enough because they cut the threads and they were positioned correctly.
