Straight Tap Wrench No 14
The Cle-Line C67197 is a fixed-handle tap wrench designed for straight threading tasks. It accepts fractional taps from 1/16 in to 3/8 in, machine screw taps #0 to #14, and metric taps from 1.50 mm to 10.00 mm. The 9 in overall length provides leverage for hand threading operations. It suits mechanics and maintenance technicians cutting new threads or chasing damaged ones.
Upgrading from adjustable tap holders
Adjustable tap wrenches can slip under high torque, risking tap breakage or misaligned threads. This fixed straight handle eliminates jaw movement, delivering consistent alignment through the cut. The jump is worth it when repeatability matters more than versatility, especially for production runs or repair jobs where a broken tap in a workpiece is costly.
Verify tap compatibility before ordering
Confirm the taps you intend to use fall within the 1/16 in to 3/8 in fractional, #0 to #14 machine screw, or 1.50 mm to 10.00 mm metric ranges. This wrench does not accommodate pipe taps. Ensure your workpiece material and thread depth suit a 9 in fixed-handle tool, as longer reaches or harder alloys may require a different handle style.

Questions about this item
What tap sizes does the Cle-Line C67197 straight tap wrench No 14 accept?
The wrench holds fractional taps from 1/16 in to 3/8 in, machine screw taps #0 to #14, and metric taps 1.50 mm to 10.00 mm.
How do you install a tap into this fixed straight handle wrench?
Open the adjustable jaws, insert the tap square, then tighten the jaws evenly so the tap cannot rotate; the step often missed is checking that the tap sits fully seated before applying torque.
What maintenance does the Cle-Line C67197 tap wrench require over time?
Keep the jaw threads clean and lightly oiled, inspect the jaws for wear that could let a tap slip, and replace the wrench if the adjustment mechanism no longer clamps securely.
