Tap Wrench Capacity 1/16 to 3/8 In
This straight tap wrench handles fractional taps from 1/16 to 3/8 inch, machine screw taps up to 1/4 inch and metric taps from M 1.6 to M12. It also fits hand reamers between 5/32 and 13/32 inch. The fixed straight handle provides direct control for threading and reaming tasks.
Replaces Adjustable Tap Wrenches
A fixed-handle design removes the moving jaw found on adjustable models, reducing play and speeding up repetitive hole threading. The jump is worth it when you frequently cut threads in the same size range and want a lighter tool without a sliding mechanism that can loosen.
Sustained Use With Fixed Handle
Under continuous threading the solid handle transmits torque evenly without the flex that can develop in adjustable wrenches over time. The 9 inch overall length gives enough leverage for the rated tap sizes while keeping the tool compact for bench or field work.

Questions about this item
What tap sizes does the 1/16 to 3/8 inch capacity cover?

How do I secure the tap in the straight handle?
Open the jaws, insert the tap square between them, and tighten the chuck firmly so the tap cannot rotate during threading.

Wipe the steel surfaces clean after each use, apply a light oil film to prevent rust, and check jaw alignment periodically for wear.
