Value Collection CCT1595 Metric Tap Die Set 12 Pc Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION CCT1595 is a 12-piece metric coarse tap and die set designed for cutting and restoring external and internal threads in metal. The set covers tap sizes from M5 x 0.8 through M10 x 1.5, making it well-suited for a broad range of fastener work encountered in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and general trade applications. All taps and dies are manufactured from high speed steel (HSS), which maintains cutting edge hardness under the friction and heat generated during thread cutting. The round adjustable dies allow the technician to fine-tune cutting diameter for a precise thread fit. A metal storage case keeps components organized on the job or in a service van.

This set is intended for professional tradespeople and experienced shop technicians who need reliable metric thread cutting capability on the bench or in the field. Typical applications include fabricating threaded connections, chasing damaged threads on equipment housings, repairing fastener holes in HVAC brackets and pump flanges, and creating new threads in drilled stock. The M5 through M10 size range covers the most commonly encountered metric coarse fastener sizes in light to medium mechanical work.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with proper tapping technique. Always use an appropriate cutting fluid when tapping or threading metal to extend tool life and produce clean threads. Secure the workpiece firmly before cutting to prevent movement. Back the tap or die out periodically to clear chips and reduce the risk of tool breakage.
