Dewalt Accessories DWA1400 6-32 Nc Drill and Tap Set

Product Description

The DEWALT ACCESSORIES DWA1400 is a 6-32 NC drill and tap set designed for creating and repairing internal threads in metal applications. The set includes a 6-32 NC tap and a No. 36 drill bit, both crafted from high-carbon steel for durability and precise thread formation. The tap features a patented core diameter that reduces breakage during demanding jobs. Black oxide split point drill bits deliver superior wear resistance and improved bite on hard surfaces. Licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers use this set for fastener repair, fixture fabrication, and machine thread work across a range of metal substrates.

This set is suited for residential and light commercial metal fabrication, maintenance, and repair tasks. It is commonly used when threading tapped holes to accept 6-32 machine screws in electrical enclosures, HVAC sheet metal brackets, panel mounting hardware, and similar light-gauge metal assemblies. The 2-piece configuration keeps the correct drill and tap pairing together, reducing setup time on the job.

Installation Notes

Tap and die work in metal is typically performed by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general maintenance mechanics. Always secure the workpiece before drilling and tapping. Use appropriate cutting fluid when tapping steel to reduce friction and extend tap life. Follow safe tool practices and applicable workplace safety codes when working with hand taps and drill bits.
