tap and die

[anectine]

Where can you buy multi start tap and die sets? I have not had any luck locating a set.

Hmmm. Wonder if mr. Redburn didn't have some for sale.

Indy-Pen-Dance carries them, but depending on what you need, it may be hit or miss, with a few items out of stock. Looks under "Tools" on their website. Indy~Pen~Dance

I have no association with them, I just happened to place an order with them last night. (They are running a "Birthday Bash" special, use code "BB" to get 8% discount).

Tap and Die spreadsheet lists these, and where to buy.

I'm posting this to the IAP Librarian this weekend, where it'll be more easily found.

Ramon, rsjimenez, had a set for sale today at the Greater Houston meeting. You might want to conact him and see if its the one you want.

Thanks everyone!

i consider myself a novice, but looking to expand my knowledge. I know the advantages of using multi start threads is quicker removal of the cap. On the internal parts do you use standard single start threads?

Adam for the connections other than the cap, most of us will use a single start. If it helps about the best choice for the section to body would be a M9 x .75. You can also go with a M10 x 1 but the first one gives you a little more meat in the body wall where you cut the cap threads.

As Monty mentioned I have a M12 mm tap and die, I am also trying to sell the die holder as a package deal.

My mistake, I thought it was a triple start.
