Thread-forming tool for electricians
The Klein Tools 626 forms new threads, re-forms burred or damaged threads and clears obstructions in electrical boxes and fittings. It automatically re-threads to the next larger size when threads are stripped. A cushion-grip handle provides greater torque and comfort during repetitive use. Electricians working on conduit and junction boxes will find it suited to daily maintenance tasks.
Six tap sizes from 6-32 to 1/4-20
The tool accommodates six tap sizes: 6-32, 8-32, 10-32, 10-24, 12-24 and 1/4-20. This range covers common machine-screw threads found in electrical enclosures and hardware. It handles thread repair across these sizes without needing separate taps. Work requiring threads outside this range or non-standard pitches will need a different tool.
7-3/4 inch overall length
The overall length is 7-3/4 inches, giving a compact profile for tight enclosures while still allowing two-handed leverage. Replacement taps are available to extend service life. Buyers who need a longer reach or a ratcheting mechanism should look elsewhere. The tool is manufactured in China and supplied new.
