ATOPLEE M14x1.25mm Metric Tap, M2 HSS 6542 Right-Hand Thread Tap

Did the job perfectly. The threads on my 90s steel rear derailleur hanger were almost stripped and was not holding the rear derailleur straight causing bad chain lines. This fixed it in one try. Amazing!

I found that the O2 sensor in my daughter’s car was seized when trying to replace it. I managed to get it out but it destroyed the threads in doing so. I was beside myself. It turns out this is not an uncommon thing to happen. The first thing I tried was an oxygen sensor thread chaser. No luck but I did manage to destroy the tool. Then I bought a second chaser from another auto parts store. Nope. I figured the only option was to install an insert because the old sensor took some metal with it during its removal. Then I figured I’d try a tap. After a quick search, I bought this from Amazon and it arrived the next day. I used a 12 point metric socket and a ratchet to screw it into the hole due to the tight space I had in the car. I also used a lot of spray lube. At first it seemed to just be spinning in the hole but I kept going, making sure to back out a turn or two to clean the threads. Turn I noticed the tap was actually going further into the hole with every turn. After removing the tap, I tried to install the sensor but it just wouldn’t go. I then screwed in my second thread chaser one time. After removing it I was able to install the sensor. I was relived. The tapping operation and installation took about 30 minutes, So if this happens to you don’t despair. This tap works! Just go slow.

Item did what it needed to do, worked well for me

I needed this to rethread my steering rack on a 05 GTO for the inner tie rods and no one in town had this size. It got the job done. the cuts felt buttery smooth I was half tempted to just full send it. After finished the cutting edges still looked good and ready for more jobs down the line, like I said it was a rethread so if you’re making new ones you’re mileage may vary.

Works as should. Used it several times now.

Bought used bmw and when I pulled the bolts off to check everything out, one of the bolts didn't go back in even a little. Bmw talks about replacing the hub.... Watched a YTube video on plug tap.... thought it was worth a shot. Ordered this and a wrench; some wd40 and 10min later and it went in like butter.

Holes must have been rusted over, and maybe rhino lined. After hours of soaking, wire brushing and thread chasing.! Nothing. Ordered this for next day. Made light work of it . The handle I used was a harbor freight one. Super study.

This was a lifesaver. I was afraid I was going to have to spend an extra extraordinary amount of money getting a threaded bolt hole drilled out and re-threaded on a tractor. I was able to restore the threads and replace the bolt with a new one and everything got torqued to spec.

Tenias mis dudas al ser de gran diámetro de rosca y usar solo un macho, cuando normalmente se pasan 3, pero con paciencia y poco a poco a quedado la rosca perfecta, recomendable.

Accurate description of the item

It was really sharp and good, you could feel it actually carving the thread

Hat wunderbar zum Nachscheiden eines M10×1,25 Gewindes funktioniert. Qualität ist gut.

With this tool I successfully fixed these badly cross threaded holes. Excellent tool👍 my coworkers always borrow mine. Works great.
