Tap Set for cutting internal left-hand (reverse) threads, supplied as a six-piece set covering a range of fine-pitch sizes.

A tap cuts a threaded bore so it can accept a matching bolt or stud. The left-hand profile produces reverse threads, used where a conventional right-hand thread would tend to slacken under the direction of rotation. The fine-pitch form gives a shallower thread with more threads per unit length, suited to thinner-wall material and finer adjustment than a coarse pitch.
