Value Collection 314-9542 Tap Die Set 41 Pc Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-9542 is a 41-piece tap and die set built for threading operations across NPT, UNC, and UNF thread standards. All taps and dies are manufactured from high speed steel with a bright finish, delivering hardness and wear resistance suited for cutting threads in mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. The set covers a tap range from 1/8-27 NPT through 3/4-16, and includes round, non-adjustable dies with a plug chamfer for standard through-hole and pipe thread applications. At 12.3 pounds, the set ships in a plastic storage case that keeps tooling organized on the job or in the shop.

This set is well suited for plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and maintenance trades who need to cut or restore threads on pipe fittings, fasteners, and mechanical components. NPT thread sizes make it practical for pipe work, while the UNC and UNF ranges cover standard machine screw and bolt applications encountered in equipment installation and repair. The plastic case and included accessories support mobile use in service vans or shop bench work.

Installation Notes

Taps and dies should be used with appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life. Secure workpieces firmly before cutting threads, and back off the tap periodically to clear chips and prevent breakage. Always verify thread size and pitch with the included screw pitch gauge before beginning a cut. Follow applicable trade and safety guidelines when working with rotating tools or pipe threading equipment.
