PaulWizard Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Hi everyone! Straight to the point. I'm looking for a tap and die set, because my previous one was foolishly lost. Currently choosing from this URL, except the 5th option, I had lang tools before. Just a piece of junk. Your recommendations are welcome! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingless Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Welcome to the forum. My experience w/ Irwin tools has been positive, so that set would get serious consideration in my evaluation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kato Posted February 11, 2020 Report Share Posted February 11, 2020 I own the Gearwrench 75pc set, love it, love it, love it. We just bought the 114pc set at work, and I love it as well. I've had my set for many years, and have used it at home and at work. I have had zero issues with the set, and I've used it a ton. Once you use the ratcheting handle you won't want to go back to anything else. One thing to consider is whether or not you're creating threads or just "fixing" them. If you tend to do more repairing and cleaning of threads you're better off with a thread restorer set. Taps and dies remove material, so instead of repairing threads you're doing more damage. Thread restorers are designed to repair threads without removing material. Something to think about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In another guide the leaders were and Gearwrench and Muzerdo.But second one was one step higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
