Drill sets are perfect for driving into a surface or material to create a hole whilst tap sets are ideal for cutting thread (tapping) into the hole, to create a clean fitting for bolts and other materials. Tap & drill sets combine both, creating a versatile set that can be used in a wide range of applications. Tap & drill sets can be used with hand tools and power tools such as tap wrenches and drills to achieve maximum torque and control. They are widely used in applications such as:

• Construction
• DIY
• Plumbing
• Workshops
• Renovations

This set features taps to accommodate the following thread sizes: M3, M4, M5, M6, M8 and M10. There is also 6 drills suitable for each size tap.

This versatile set can be used with both hand tools and power tools, depending on the application required. Using a hand tool such as a tap wrench will provide a more controlled and precise thread, whereas a power tool will allow for rapid tapping or drilling.

It is recommended that lubrication is regularly applied to the set when in use, to allow for friction free threading with precision. This will ensure that a clean thread is achieved with minimal damage.

A tap set is used to create or repair threads in holes which is ideal for things such as nuts and fittings, this process is called tapping. Die sets are used to cut threads on materials such as steel rods to allow a fitting to be screwed on and attached, this is called threading.
