Westward 2CYT1 T-Handle Tap Wrench Fixed 1/4-1/2 Inch

Fixed T-handle tap wrench

The Westward 2CYT1 is a fixed T-handle tap wrench designed for hand-threading operations. It accepts fractional taps from 1/4 to 1/2 inch, machine screw tap 14 and metric taps from M6 to M12. The extended shank reaches into confined spaces where a standard wrench cannot fit. A reversible ratchet mechanism locks for non-ratchet use when needed.

Mechanics cutting new threads in open work areas

This tool suits technicians who cut threads by hand in accessible locations and want a simple, reversible ratchet action. The fixed T-handle gives direct leverage without a sliding head that could catch on nearby surfaces. It is not suited for blind holes or tight corners where a sliding or offset handle would clear obstructions. Buyers needing adjustable handle angles should consider a different style.

Fractional tap capacity 1/4 to 1/2 inch

The decisive specification is the fractional tap range of 1/4 to 1/2 inch, matched by machine screw tap 14 and metric M6 to M12. Selecting a tap outside this range will not fit the jaws and the wrench cannot drive it. Verify the tap size before purchase to ensure compatibility with the intended threading job.
