Value Collection CCT1577 Tap Die Set 30 Pc Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CCT1577 is a 30-piece tap and die set covering thread sizes from 1/4-20 through 3/4-16 in both UNC and UNF thread standards. All taps and dies are machined from high speed steel for durability across a range of fastener materials. The set includes round dies, a die stock, and a straight handle tap wrench, making it a self-contained kit for threading and re-threading operations. The metal case keeps components organized and protected between jobs. At 12 pounds, it is a substantial kit suited for shop use or field service work by machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance trades.

This set is used wherever threaded fasteners need to be cut, chased, or restored in steel, aluminum, or other common metals. It covers the most common unified thread sizes found in mechanical assemblies, equipment frames, and structural hardware. Typical applications include maintenance and repair work on industrial equipment, HVAC structural components, piping supports, and general mechanical fabrication. The UNC and UNF coverage makes it versatile across both coarse and fine thread requirements without needing a second set.

Installation Notes

Taps and dies should be used with appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend tool life. Always secure the workpiece before threading operations. Taps are susceptible to breakage if forced — back off frequently to clear chips, especially in blind holes. This tooling is intended for use by qualified machinists or maintenance trades familiar with hand threading procedures.
