Bent Nose Pliers for Tapping
The Westward 2CYT9 is a straight-handled tap wrench with a bent nose profile designed to turn taps in fractional sizes from 1/16 to 1/4 inch. It also accommodates machine screw taps up to 1/4 inch and metric taps from M1.6 to M6. The 7-inch overall length provides leverage for hand threading tasks.
Mechanics and hobbyists threading small holes
This tool suits anyone cutting internal threads in metal or plastic using taps within the stated capacity range. It is not for buyers who need adjustable handles, ratcheting action, or the ability to drive taps larger than 1/4 inch or M6. It also does not suit applications requiring a T-handle or sliding bar for extra torque.
7-inch overall length
The fixed straight handle measures 7 inches end to end, which determines the leverage available for turning taps by hand. This single dimension dictates whether the wrench fits the workspace and provides enough force for the intended thread size.
