A good basic kit

For the price these taps & the wrench are reasonable value. I found that I needed a pair of pliers to tighten the collet sufficiently to hold the smallest tap (M5) & that the largest tap (M10) wouldn't fit into the jaws of the collet unless I forced them open a little. Having said all that, I did the job that I bought them for & I think they should suit the average handyman.Read full review

Disappointing.

Found this set to be a waste of time, the taps have square shanks but despite this the chuck of the wrench is unable to grip them. I could try the taps with drill but again the shanks would be better if they were hexagonal like drill bits. I was only tapping aluminium so can see no easy way they could be manipulated for steel as claimed. Bought a tap with a hexagonal shank and finished the job using a cordless drill.

Worked perfectly

Needed an M6 but this set seemed good value for money. Decades since I've tapped something but I needed to tap 2 predrilled holes under the seat in my car. Awkward to say the least, but this tool nicely managed to fit in the small space.Took it easy and no issues with snapped tools either.Read full review

Not for plate steel

Tried these on 10mm plate drilled to correct bore. We’re too soft to really cut properly. Still great for
Cleaning up threads or for say 3mm steel or thicker brass.

Good to clean up threads

Prompt delivery, good quality and does what I wanted, not used extensively but wasn't bought for that. - very good product.

Useless wrench. Taps work ok

The tap wrench is useless, doesn't come with square jaws to hold the end of taps securely. I used my own spanner to torque the tap to create threads in my work piece. Taps seem ok and probably worth the price of the item, despite useless wrench..Read full review

For occasional use

I don't inted to use these regularly so they don't have to be very durable, but these are going to last me for quite a few years to come. Very happy with my purchase.

Cheap but does the job

If you are tapping 100 holes this is not what you want. But if you need a handy tap set for occasion use you should get this. Cheap and handy ..

Reasonable kit

The kit had the two sizes I needed and the required job was done without drama. The quality was more than good enough for mild steel

Good value product

I bought this set to tap out threads in softer material i.e. Plastic and wood so can't vouch for effectiveness or longevity with different metals. Better quality and finish than I expected for the price and really useful for my needs!Read full review
