Value Collection DT22HEX-SET10 Drill and Tap Set 10 Pc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION DT22HEX-SET10 is a 10-piece combination drill and tap set covering thread sizes from 6-32 up to 1/2-13 UNC. Each tool in the set combines a drill point and a tap geometry into a single cutting tool, allowing the user to drill and tap a hole in one operation. The tools are manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), which provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for production tapping in steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials. This set is a common choice for machinists, maintenance technicians, and fabricators who need to create threaded holes efficiently without changing between separate drill and tap tools.

This set is suited for general metalworking applications in both shop and field environments. The UNC (Unified National Coarse) thread standard it covers is the most widely used fastener thread form in North American trade applications. The range from 6-32 through 1/2-13 covers the majority of common machine screw and bolt sizes encountered in HVAC equipment assembly, electrical enclosure work, light structural fabrication, and general maintenance. Licensed tradespeople and journeymen machinists will find the size range practical for everyday threading tasks.

Key Features

• Combination drill-and-tap design completes a threaded hole in a single operation
• High-speed steel construction for durability in ferrous and non-ferrous metals
• Covers 6-32 through 1/2-13 UNC — the full range of common coarse-thread machine screw sizes
• 10-piece set provides complete size coverage across the UNC range
• UNC thread standard for broad compatibility with North American fastener specifications

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard drill press, CNC, or hand-held power tool applications where UNC-threaded holes in the 6-32 to 1/2-13 size range are required.

Installation Notes

Combination drill-tap tools are typically installed and operated by machinists or maintenance technicians using a drill press, milling machine, or appropriate variable-speed power tool. Use cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Secure the workpiece firmly before operation and confirm correct spindle speed for the tool diameter being used. Inspect each tool for wear or chipping before use, as a damaged cutting edge will produce poor thread quality and can break off in the workpiece.
