Draper 52 Piece Tap and Die Set

About this product

The Draper 52 Piece Tap and Die Set is a comprehensive threading toolkit designed for cutting and cleaning threads in mild steel and aluminium. Manufactured from durable carbon steel, this set provides tradespeople and engineers with the essential tools needed for thread repair and creation across multiple thread standards. This versatile set covers the most commonly used thread types in UK workshops, including metric, UNF, and BSP standards. The metric dies range from M3 to M12, whilst the UNF selection covers 1/4" through to 1/2" threads, making it ideal for automotive work, machinery maintenance, and general fabrication tasks. The inclusion of 13 HSS twist drills ensures you have the correct pilot hole sizes for accurate thread tapping. Beyond the core tapping and die-cutting components, this set includes practical accessories that enhance functionality. The screw pitch gauge helps identify existing thread types, whilst the five screw extractors provide a solution for removing damaged or seized fasteners. Two tap wrenches in different capacities offer flexibility for various thread sizes, and the 1" die holder with guide ensures accurate thread cutting. All 52 pieces are organised in a steel storage case with a plastic insert, keeping tools protected and readily accessible between jobs.
