18-piece HSS metric tap and drill set

This Westward 5PXJ4 set combines 18 high-speed steel pieces for metric threading work. Black-oxide finished drill bits and matching hand taps cover a range of diameters from 2.05 mm up to 10.2 mm. The 118-degree point angle suits general-purpose drilling in steel and other metals. All components are impact-rated no, so they are intended for hand or standard machine use.

Drill sizes matched to tap threads

Each drill bit diameter corresponds to the correct tapping size for the included hand taps, removing the guesswork of selecting separate bits. The set spans 2.05 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.9 mm, 3.3 mm, 4.2 mm, 5.0 mm, 6.7 mm, 8.5 mm and 10.2 mm drill sizes. Having both drills and taps in one case frees up storage space and speeds up changeovers on the bench. No impact-rated shanks means the set fits conventional drill chucks and tap handles.

Suited for metric thread repair and fabrication

Mechanics, maintenance technicians and hobbyists cutting metric threads in steel or aluminium will find the range practical. Users needing imperial sizes, larger diameters beyond 10.2 mm, or impact-rated shanks for hammer drills should look at other kits. The high-speed steel material handles typical workshop materials but is not designed for hardened alloys or high-volume production tapping.

Questions about this item

How small a hole can the 2.05 mm drill bit start before I tap?

The set includes a 2.05 mm high-speed-steel drill bit with a 118° point, giving you the smallest starting diameter in the kit.

Will the black-oxide bits run hot or wear fast when I tap dozens of holes in a day?

Black-oxide high-speed steel reduces friction and resists heat build-up during repetitive hand tapping, extending bit life.

What handle or wrench do I need to turn the hand taps once the holes are drilled?

The taps have square shanks sized for standard tap wrenches or T-handles; choose a wrench that fits the largest tap in the set.
