Milwaukee Tool 49-57-5554 M10-1.50mm Tap Drill Set

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 49-57-5554 is a 2-piece tap and drill bit set designed for threading M10-1.50mm holes in metal workpieces. The set includes one M10-1.50mm plug tap and one R drill bit (approximately 8.5mm), providing the correctly sized pilot hole drill and matching tap in a single package. The tap is a standard right-hand, standard hand type with an oxide coating for corrosion resistance. Both the tap and drill bit are manufactured from high carbon steel. This set is used by electricians, plumbers, HVAC technicians, and general trade professionals who need to cut or repair M10-1.50mm threads on the job.

This tap and drill bit set is suited for light-duty threading applications in ferrous and non-ferrous metals encountered in typical trade work. The R drill bit establishes the correct pilot hole diameter before the plug tap cuts the full M10-1.50mm thread profile. The plug tap chamfer style allows it to start threads in through-holes and most blind-hole applications. No carrying case is included, making this a compact, tool-belt-friendly pairing for field use or shop bench work.

Key Features

• Matched set: R drill bit and M10-1.50mm plug tap sold together for correct pilot-to-thread sizing
• High carbon steel construction on both tap and drill bit for cutting durability
• Oxide finish on tap provides corrosion resistance and reduces galling during thread cutting
• Right-hand thread direction, standard hand tap style compatible with conventional tap handles and tap wrenches
• Compact 2-piece count with no case — minimizes bulk for field carry

Compatibility

Designed for cutting M10-1.50mm right-hand threads in applications where a standard hand plug tap is appropriate. The R drill bit is sized to produce the correct pilot hole for M10-1.50mm thread engagement per standard tap drill charts.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with tapping procedures. Secure the workpiece before drilling and tapping to prevent movement. Apply cutting oil to the tap during thread cutting to extend tap life and improve thread quality. Follow applicable safety practices for rotary cutting tools, including eye protection and secure workholding.
