Cle-line C67203 Straight Handle Tap Wrench 5/32-3/4 in

Product Description

The CLE-LINE C67203 is a straight handle tap wrench designed for threading operations in metal, plastic, and similar materials. It accepts taps ranging from 5/32 inches to 3/4 inches, covering metric sizes M4 through M19, making it suitable for a broad range of tapping tasks on the bench or in the field. At 15 inches overall length, the wrench provides leverage for controlled torque application without a ratcheting mechanism, keeping the tool simple and direct. Machinists, pipefitters, and general maintenance technicians use this type of wrench when hand-threading tapped holes to precise depth.

This tap wrench suits light to medium hand-tapping work in residential and commercial maintenance, plumbing rough-in, and fabrication settings. It handles a pipe tap range of 1/8 inch to 1/4 inch, which covers common NPT pipe tap sizes used in gas and water line work. The straight handle design allows two-handed operation for steady, axial feed when starting a tap square to the workpiece.
