Tap and Die Set Bituxx JBC-M033-3 — 33 pcs (M3–M12) in metal case

Bituxx JBC-M033-3 — 33 pcs (M3–M12) in metal case is a tap and die set designed for creating and repairing metric threads in a workshop or for maintenance tasks. The kit includes taps and dies covering metric sizes from M3 to M12 and is supplied in a durable metal case that keeps tools organised and protected during storage and transport. This set is intended for cutting internal and external threads on metal and plastic parts where metric threads M3–M12 are required.

Advantages

The set offers a compact selection of commonly used metric sizes M3–M12 in a single kit, reducing the need to source individual taps and dies. The metal case provides robust storage and protection against impact and loss of components. Tools are grouped to simplify selection during work, and the assortment supports both internal and external threading operations, which makes it practical for a variety of repair and fabrication tasks.

Suitable for

• Repairing damaged threads on metal parts

• Intended materials: suitable for use on metal and plastic parts

How to use

Select the appropriate tap or die size for the required metric thread (M3–M12). Secure the workpiece and, for tapping, start with a correctly sized pilot hole; apply suitable cutting fluid for metal work to reduce friction and improve finish. Insert the tap into the tap handle and turn evenly, reversing periodically to clear chips. For dies, mount the die in the die stock and rotate onto the workpiece to form the external thread, using cutting fluid and backing off to remove swarf as needed. After threading, clean the tool and the threaded part and store components in the metal case to prevent damage and loss.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, clamp workpieces securely, and apply suitable cutting lubricant when working with metal to extend tool life and achieve cleaner threads. Do not force taps or dies if excessive resistance is encountered; back off to clear chips and inspect for correct alignment.
