Electrician Drill and Tap Set
The Westward 5PXJ0 kit bundles 13 drill bits and matching taps for electricians who need to create threaded holes in metal. Sizes #21, #25, #29, #36, #43 and #7 cover common conduit and box knockouts. High-speed steel with a 118-degree point angle handles steel, aluminium and copper cleanly.
Cutting Performance and Heat
Bright uncoated HSS bits run cooler than coated alternatives when lubricated properly. The 118-degree point centres quickly without walking, reducing friction and noise during hand-drill use. No impact rating means the set is intended for steady rotary drilling only, not hammer or impact drivers.
Workshop Integration
Fractional inch, letter and wire gauge markings let you match tap drill charts without conversion tables. The 13-piece count fits a compact case that sits in a tool bag or drawer. Builders needing larger diameters, metric sizes or impact-rated shanks will need a supplementary set.

Questions about this item
How do I match the #21, #25, #29, #36, #43, and #7 drill bits to the correct taps in this 13-piece set?
Each drill bit size corresponds to a specific tap thread; use the included chart or tap markings to pair the #43 bit with the finest tap and progress to larger bits for coarser threads.
Will the high-speed steel bits and carbon steel taps need replacement after heavy use in steel?
The 118° HSS bits and carbon steel taps will dull over time; resharpen bits on a bench grinder and replace taps once threads cut poorly or show chipping.
At what point does the 118° point angle limit drilling speed in harder materials?
The 118° point is optimised for general-purpose drilling; in harder alloys it generates more heat and wanders sooner than split-point bits, reducing feed rates.
