How to use

Select the appropriate tap or die for the thread size required and secure the workpiece in a vise or fixture. For internal threads, start the tap carefully in a properly prepared drilled hole and use a tap wrench to turn the tap slowly, backing off intermittently to clear chips. For external threads, mount the die in a die holder, align it squarely on the rod, and turn to cut the thread using steady pressure while clearing chips as needed. Apply cutting fluid to reduce friction and prolong tool life. After threading, clean chips from the workpiece and inspect threads for correct fit with mating parts.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment, clamp workpieces securely, and use cutting fluid for improved finish and tool longevity. Avoid forcing taps or dies if binding occurs; back out to clear chips and re-enter carefully. Store tools dry in the metal case to prevent corrosion and keep the set organized for future use.
