Metric M8 X 1.25 HSS Ti-Coated Straight Flute Thread Tap, M8 X 1.25mm Titanium Coated Thread Machine Tap Right Hand

Needed an M14 size for re-threading a specialized lug nut. Most kits only go to M12 so this worked for me. Seemed to be good quality and had no trouble cutting a new thread. I was able to thread the nut back on to the stud like it was brand new. No more living dangerously with only 4/5 lug nuts! Highly recommend for that such application!

Did the job!

High quality worked like a champ.

Excellent Product, Excellent Quality, and very easy to use.

The only issue I didn’t know I need a handle for this tool

I'm going to start with the negative part of my experience with this tap. I ordered a M6 X 1.0 tap but when it arrived, it seemed to be larger than expected. The order form said M6 X 1.0 and the package said M6 X 1.0 but etched on the tap itself was, "M8 X 1.0." If I had just started trying to cut threads with it, it would have been a sad mess but I caught it from the start. Of course, the Amazon Prime return process was wonderful, amazing, quick and easy. They sent me a replacement, which was the correct size that time, and I sent back the first one. I can't mark a product down from that kind of mistake but it would be a good idea to check yours out first and well before the return period runs out.Using the correct size tap, I had an aluminum mounting block with two blind holes that came from the factory with threads that only went down about 1/2" into an 1" deep hole. For the type of application that it was, it may have been fine like that but I wanted to use longer screws and just get more threads involved. For my situation, this tap worked just fine but it was only cutting into not-hard aluminum. This was not one of the aluminum alloys that are much harder (such as 7075 T6). Please note that I read reviews where some people had broken their taps and also, I'm of the old school where you go forward 1/2 turn and then reverse two turns. I also used a decent cutting oil. Being a blind hole, I also removed the tap and cleared out the chips several times. That takes a lot longer then the way some people may tap a hole but I only had TWO holes to tap and wanted to play it as safe as possible.

Works well, doesn't strip easily

My wife had brand new tires installed and the technician stripped a wheel bolt (Jeep) while trying to reinstall the new tires.. well, i got stuck with fixing it...I can't ruin it further so I ordered this tap and replacement wheel bolt (pack of 5 from Amazon).. worked great..cut like butter and I installed the wheel bolt and torqued it to 100 lb/ft..."click" good to go...now she has 5 wheel bolts on each hub.... this tap cut great...worth the money 👍
