Irwin 80213 Tap Drill Set 6-32 7/64 Inch 2 Piece

Product Description

The IRWIN 80213 is a 2-piece tap and drill set configured for 6-32 unified coarse thread tapping. The set includes one 6-32 spiral flute tap and one 7/64-inch drill bit, matched as a complementary pair for accurate thread preparation. The tap is made from carbon steel with a bright finish and a plug chamfer, which is suited for through-hole and most general-purpose tapping applications. The drill bit is high speed steel. At 0.12 pounds, this compact set is designed for use by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and maintenance professionals who need to cut clean internal threads in metal fastener applications on the job.

This set is sized specifically for 6-32 machine screw threads, one of the most common thread sizes used in electrical panels, junction boxes, equipment housings, and light-gauge metal fabrication. The 7/64-inch drill provides the correct clearance for a 6-32 tap, removing the guesswork from drill selection. It is appropriate for use in ferrous and non-ferrous metals in both residential and commercial service settings.

Key Features

• Matched 6-32 tap and 7/64-inch drill bit eliminate drill-size guesswork

Compatibility

Designed for applications requiring 6-32 unified coarse internal threads, compatible with standard 6-32 machine screws used in electrical enclosures, equipment panels, and light-gauge metal assemblies.

Installation Notes

A licensed technician or qualified mechanic should secure the workpiece before drilling and tapping to prevent movement. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to extend tap life and produce cleaner threads in metal. Use a tap wrench for controlled torque and back the tap out periodically to clear chips. Follow applicable workplace safety codes when operating drilling equipment.
