13 best threading tools
Threading tools are essential components used in machining and metalworking processes, specifically for creating threads on workpieces. These tools are related to Turning Tools, Lathe Parts Accessories, Power Tool Parts Accessories, Power Hand Tools, and fall within the Tools Home Improvement category. Here's what you need to know about threading tools:
Purpose: Threading tools are designed to cut external or internal threads on various materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Threads are critical for assembling parts and components securely.
Types of Threading Tools:
- Die: A die is a tool used for cutting external threads on cylindrical workpieces. It is commonly used in applications like plumbing and metalworking.
- Tap: A tap is a tool used for cutting internal threads within a hole. It is often used in applications like creating threaded holes for bolts and screws.
Materials: Threading tools are typically made from high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide, depending on the hardness of the workpiece material. Carbide tools are preferred for harder materials.
Design and Varieties: Threading tools come in various sizes and thread pitch configurations to accommodate different thread specifications. They can be straight-fluted or spiral-fluted, with the latter being more efficient for chip evacuation.
Use with Lathes: In a lathe, threading tools are often used in conjunction with a compound rest or a threading attachment. The tool is gradually fed into the workpiece to create the desired thread profile.
Power Tools: Threading can also be accomplished using power tools like electric or pneumatic threaders, which are commonly used in plumbing and construction for threading pipes.
Maintenance: Proper maintenance, including sharpening or replacing worn-out threading tools, is essential for achieving accurate and clean threads.
Safety: When using threading tools, it's important to follow safety precautions, wear appropriate personal protective equipment, and ensure that the workpiece is securely held in place to prevent accidents.
Threading tools are crucial in various industries, from manufacturing to construction and automotive.They enable the creation of threaded connections that are vital for joining components and ensuring the stability and functionality of many products and structures.

Answer: | Shank size is close to 3/8” diameter. |
Question: | shank size |
Answer: | These will cut 16 to 48 TPI standard 60 degree threads. They are not designed to cut acme threads, and most acme threads are coarser than 16 TPI. |
Question: | what pitch of thread can be cut with these tool will it cut acme threads |
Answer: | As far as I can tell, the handles may very well be, but the body appears to be cast. Seems to be well made, though. I'm not disappointed and will buy another if needed, to accommodate bigger bodied dies. |

Product description
How to Use:
Step 1: Please ensure that the direction of rotation in the first step must be reversed.Select the right size and slowly start drilling a hole in the screw head or bolt. This will form a conical hole, making the extraction head easy to grasp
Step 2: Switch the bit to the extractor.When a constant downward pressure is applied to the screw and moving at a low speed, pulling out the tip will bite into the screw and pull out the damaged screw Features:
High Quality: This damaged screw removal tool kit is made of high hardness HSS 4341 (hardness 63hrc) alloy steel for durability.
Easy to Operate: In just two easy steps, only the drill bit is needed, no other tools are needed, choose a smaller than the damaged screw, you can easily remove the screw, please ensure that the hole is reversed during this process.

User questions & answers
Question: | Can I tap a 10-32 hole with this kit |
Answer: | Probably not. My kit didn't come with a 10-32 tap, it has a 10-40 and the largest 32 thread pitch die was an 8-32. |
Question: | What are these stupid sizes : we need them in mm . i hate american sizes . inch and feet and unc which i do not know what is it |
Answer: | They sell them in metric sizes as well. With that said I'd save my money. The set I purchased lasted about 5 seconds. the taps broke after about three turns and the die wrench, I used for a fishing sinker. |
Question: | Can you use this on wood |
Answer: | I think that depending on what you are trying to accomplish, cutting either male or female threads in wood of any kind to mate with any kind of metal part is an exercise in futility. That said, you can glue threaded metal inserts into a hole drilled in the wood that will work much better. However if you want to mate wooden parts only such as in a workbench vise, this may be a feasible tool depending on what the largest size taps and dies are in the set. Traditionally though, wooden threads for this purpose are generally cut by hand with chisels and rasps and files due to coarse the threads must be to allow for the material strength difference. |
Question: | It is inch or metric |
Answer: | It is available in either metric or english, be sure to read the description carefully to order the one you want. I accidentally ordered the wrong one the first time and had to return it. |
