Orion Motor Tech 86pc Tap and Die Set in SAE and Metric, Titanium Coated Steel Tap Set and Die Tool Set for Homeowners Mechanics and Craftsmen Metric and Standard Internal and External Threading

M12c1.5 Toyota lug nut and bolt. Tire place must’ve cross-threaded the bolt because I couldn’t get it back on even foolishly with my air impact. I used the nut and bolt chasers and they fixed up the threads perfectly! I did go slowly and back up to clear the cut metal before proceeding. I also used Central Pneumatic’s light tool oil. I am very happy with my OMT purchase! I own several other OMT products like sockets up to 23 mm and then 30-36 mm.

These have been very good for the DIY mechanic. They seem to have strength and good cutting. No broken pieces yet. Use common sense to operate the tools and these should last many cuts.

Only getting 4 stars because the case these come in are soft, not sturdy. The pieces inside can fall out. Otherwise, they work great in the garage. When working on older cars, I prefer to chase the threads because of rust or corrosion. This kit does just that.

I have a good set of imperials but metric is scattered on equipment back and forth they work fine just run something with them not dry

I needed an M8x1.25 tap, and hated the thought of buying a single tap bit and subsequently losing it, only to have to buy another down the road. The cases work well enough to keep all your taps and dies organized and easy to find in a cluttered garage. Assortment is quite good for the price. I’m well aware you get what you pay for, and these probably won’t hold up to strenuous use, but they did work to repair a damaged steel stud in aluminum I had mostly drilled out.Be warned, the T handles that I received in this set were borderline worse than useless. They have so much play in them and no way to tighten with a cross bar. Even after using a set of vice-grips to tighten them down, they hopped around the tap mockingly and even became frozen in their bizarre, cocked alignment. Thankfully I own an old set of Irwin T handles that completed the job. Unfortunately, I now have to carry the Orion bit sets AND Irwin handles separately to any job I need them on, as the nicer handles do not fit in the supplied box.Bottom line, buy this set for occasional light duty work on a budget, and be prepared to buy a quality bit and die T handle from a name brand manufacturer at the same time. If you need to complete an expensive, tough repair, you should probably buy a single, high quality tap instead.

Great product, great price, great service

I now have thread super powers now. Very complete set

I bought this for working on bicycles. Most modern bikes have all metric threads, this set covers most of those important areas. They are useful for "chasing" threads during a build to remove corrosion and damage to threads. Worked great for restoring a brake caliper bolt also.
