If you live in a rust belt then you probably need this kit

This set is excellent and very complete. My only complaint, which is minor and I'm not deducting a single star, is that I would like the dimensions stamped on the sides of the stamps to be more legible. However, it is very helpful for cleaning hardened/rusty/damaged threads. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • . Use for thread repair ONLY, it will NOT cut new threads!
Cons
  • Something is wrong

An excellent flashing set. Very convenient and works great.

Great replacement thread set. Very convenient and works great. I use them frequently. I have looked at others and this is the best value for money I have found. I've had one of these for 20 years and was very happy when they arrived. I saw they were the same ones I had for so many years and I used them over and over again until someone stole them. You will be surprised at how well made and comfortable they are.

Pros
  • Includes files #8231 and #8233 and color coded taps and dies:
Cons
  • Style 90

You think you only need it once.

mad at you ever touched I bought this set because I couldn't find anyone that carries the M10x1.5 cut, or cuts for that matter. Putting together a project of a car that came out of the Rusty Belt. I've used this kit on every nut and bolt I've touched to the point where the entire machine is reassembled like clockwork. Absolutely worth the money.

Pros
  • Die (Only) Metric - 6 x 1.25, 7 x 1.00, 8 x 1.00mm NC-USS - 5/8" - 11 NF-SAE - 5/8" - 18
Cons
  • Makes

It's a re-sliced ​​baby, not a click and die thing.

Some negative reviews are written by those who use it as a tap. It is not. Please note this is a rebuild kit, NOT a tap and die. The tap and die create new threads for something that requires a new threat step or entirely new threads, but takes more time/power/space and also requires more metal. This tool is designed to clean tangled or corroded threads. It's faster and easier to use with more bugs. You really need both, especially if you're a pro. So you need to clean up some Booger issues…

Pros
  • Tap and Die Sets: Metric - 6 x 1.00, 8 x 1.50, 10 x 1.00, 10 x 1.25, 10 x 1.50, 11 x 1.50, 12 x 1.25, 12 x 1.50, 12 x 1.75, 14 x 1.50 mm NC- USS - 1/4" - 20, 5/16" - 18, 3/8" - 16, 7/16" "-14, 1/2"-13, 9/16"-12 NF-SAE - 1/4"-28, 5/16"-24, 3/8"-24, 7/16 " - 20, 1/2" - 20, 9/16" - 18
Cons

great set Made in USA quality!

I bought this set based on other reviews I read and am happy with it. I restore a lot of old equipment and work on cars so much that I needed a replacement thread kit in my tool box. I used to use wire wheels and brushes to clean threads as best I could, but this method never repaired damaged threads. I just received this set last week and am surprised I got this far without it. I'm restoring some 50+ year old sheet metal machines and once I've screwed in all the threads the build is much more…

Pros
  • MADE IN USA
Cons
  • Unsure
