Eagle Cutting Tool TDS-CS-3M-12M Tap Die Set M3-M12

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL T&DS-CS-3M-12M is a carbon steel metric tap and die set covering thread sizes M3.0 through M12.0. It is designed for cutting and chasing both internal and external threads on metal workpieces. The set is built from carbon steel, offering the hardness needed for general threading work on softer base metals such as aluminum, brass, and mild steel. Weighing 3.18 pounds, the kit is substantial enough to include a practical range of thread sizes for maintenance, fabrication, and repair tasks. Electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trade mechanics keep sets like this on hand for field threading and re-threading of fasteners, conduit fittings, and pipe connections.

This set covers the M3.0 through M12.0 metric thread range, making it suitable for a broad range of threading applications in both shop and field environments. It is well suited for trades that regularly work with metric fasteners and fittings, including mechanical contractors, industrial maintenance technicians, and service professionals who need to cut new threads or restore damaged ones on metric hardware and components.

Key Features

• Carbon steel construction provides sufficient hardness for threading aluminum, brass, and mild steel
• Covers M3.0 through M12.0 metric thread sizes in a single set
• Includes both taps for internal threads and dies for external threads
• Compact set weight of 3.18 pounds for portability between job sites

Compatibility

Designed for use with M3.0 through M12.0 metric threaded fasteners and fittings on workpieces made of aluminum, brass, and mild steel or similarly machinable materials.

Installation Notes

Threading and re-threading work should be performed with appropriate cutting oil or thread-cutting fluid to extend tool life and produce clean threads. Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting to prevent movement and ensure thread alignment. Worn or damaged threads on structural fasteners should be evaluated by a qualified tradesperson before re-threading. Always use the correct tap wrench or die stock handle to maintain control and avoid breaking taps in blind holes.
