UNF Taps & Dies

Post by Steve »

Reasonably priced? £16.63p inc VAT (At time of writing) good quality and fast delivery.
Tap & die set UNF/UNC (Boxed).
Ideal for running the taps through those old, rusty captive nuts welded to your Moke or after painting, dies for the subframe studs etc.....

While good taps and dies are neccessary during a restoration, I found a thread restoring kit very handy.

They're designed to "roll" the threads back into shape instead of cutting material away. Also, they don't cross thread so easily. (Which can really ruin your whole day) I don't know if similar is available in whatever part of the world you're in though.

Looks like a handy piece of kit Robin, think I'll be sending a shopping list out to the family in SoCal.
