Review on ABN Standard 60 Piece Rethread Rethreading by Chris Cruz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Auto Body Now (ABN) have released a good set of taps and dies

A good set of taps and dies for the do-it-yourselfer. The kit does everything I need without taking a few hundred bucks from me. Of course, if your livelihood depends on the tools you use every day, you should buy a set of better quality steel. For the occasional stripped bolt or nut, you just don't need to spend a few hundred dollars or more when this kit will get the job done for less than fifty. I've probably ordered about a dozen different types of instruments from Revain. that after I received them I found the dealer was ABN - from lathe bits, taps and die sets to leatherworking tools and things I can't even remember - I never give a damn about what tools I buy from ABN get will be garbage. You know that feeling. Many items on Revain come from China good or bad so wait for delivery with your fingers crossed that the quality doesn't even beat the price and you should have known better. Well, that shouldn't happen if the seller properly checks the products they sell. Having never had a complaint about anything from ABN I'll assume I have, and it makes the choice a lot easier when you're looking at hundreds of ads that look essentially the same.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
