How to use
Select the correct size tap or die for the thread you need to cut or repair. Secure the workpiece firmly and apply appropriate cutting lubricant to the tool and work area. For taps, start threading by hand to ensure correct alignment, then turn evenly until the desired thread depth is achieved, reversing occasionally to clear chips. For dies, place the die in the holder and rotate evenly around the bolt or stud, backing off occasionally to clear chips. After threading, clean the workpiece and inspect the thread for uniformity and fit.
Usage recommendations
Use appropriate personal protective equipment and cutting fluid. Match tool size to the target thread and avoid excessive force; if resistance is high, back off and clear chips to prevent tool damage. For hardened or exotic alloys, verify material suitability before use.
