Selected User Reviews For Irwin Tools 1788671 IRWIN High Carbon Steel Bottom Tap 8-32nc Carded (1788671),
I used to play the old 8-bit game The 32 in my Vermont kit (inherited from my dad) was probably more than 40 years old and a little faded. A great new tap that cuts superbly and is hard to the touch.
It is made of Chineseium material. The first time around, the tap snapped. The broken tap was removed over the course of several hours. You can buy quality taps in the USA.
I bought two of them. I broke one right away. Other than that, it is still in use.
Whenever I need drill bits, taps, or dies, Irwin tool brands are the ones I reach for. Workmanship of the highest quality.
In order to thread a blind hole, I needed a taper tap that would thread down to the bottom. I thought it did a good job.
My 3/16 plate is cutting very well even after I have taped at least 20 holes.
The Irwin tap has always been of high quality. China is now the supplier of imports. These are good for hard metals. I used them for some very hard metal.
It did work for a couple of taps, but then got dull and wouldn't cut aluminum. Eventually.
