The set covers tap sizes from M2.5 x 0.45 up to M12 x 1.75, paired with matching drill blanks ranging from 2.05 mm to 10.2 mm. Both taps and drills are made from high speed steel for durability and heat resistance during cutting. A bright finish on the taps reduces friction and aids chip clearance. The plug chamfer style makes these taps well suited for through-hole threading applications. The set ships in a metal case for organized storage and job-site portability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis set is intended for use by machinists, pipefitters, electricians, and HVAC technicians who need to cut metric threads in sheet metal, brackets, enclosures, equipment housings, or mechanical components. It is appropriate for both shop bench work and field service applications where metric fastener threads must be tapped by hand. The M2.5 through M12 range covers the most common metric thread sizes encountered in light to medium commercial and industrial work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18-piece set covers M2.5 x 0.45 through M12 x 1.75 tap sizes with matching drills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh speed steel construction on both taps and drill blanks for extended cutting life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug chamfer design suited for through-hole hand tapping operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright finish reduces friction and aids chip evacuation during tapping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrganized metal case keeps taps and drills paired and protected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStandard hand tap type compatible with common tap handles and T-wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a general-purpose metric tap and drill set for standard hand tapping applications across a range of materials including mild steel, aluminum, and similar workpiece materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eHand tapping should be performed by a qualified tradesperson using a properly sized tap handle or T-wrench. Always use cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to reduce heat buildup and extend tap life. Back off the tap periodically to break chips and prevent binding. Inspect taps for wear or damage before use, as a damaged tap can seize in the hole and damage the workpiece.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Tap Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M2.5 x 0.45\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Tap Thread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M12 x 1.75\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Drill Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.05 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Drill Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10.20 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChamfer\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrill Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTap Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metal Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.54 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 314-9583\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51695762080050,"sku":"314-9583","price":110.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/8fb951d8fb71948133f8474dfa60f5be.jpg?v=1788338096","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-314-9583-metric-tap-drill-set-18-pc","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
