Is the ABN 60 piece metric a rethread set?

Despite its name, the ABN 60-Piece Metric and SAE Standard Tap and Die Rethread Set not only rethreads damaged hardware but helps users create new threads when needed. Each tap and die is made with a hardened steel alloy to maximize their strength and durability.

What kind of tap and die set do I Need?

How are the tap and die measurements determined?

Metric tap and die measurements are determined by measuring the distance between the thread crests in millimeters. The crest of a thread is the protruding part, regardless of whether it is internal or external. In contrast, the root is the groove that sits between the two flanks that connect the crest to the root.

This next kit comes from ABN and it is certainly comprehensive. A 60 piece set compatible with both Metric and SAE measurements means this is a tap and die set that should not be found wanting no matter what job you are tackling.

Hardened alloy steel has been used in the construction of these tools, and that is a stand out feature we love to see. It means you are looking at a kit with the toughness and durability to cut a wide range of materials and carry on doing it for prolonged periods of time – everything from aluminum to cast iron should be within the limits of this tough set.

The wrenches and adaptor are not the most ergonomic or comfortable on the market, while the storage case is strangely laid out. That makes it a little larger than many other cases on the market, which could cause some storage issues. Still, that seems a small price to pay for such a tough and durable tap and die kit.
