What Customers Are Saying
The product appears to be a well-made and versatile set suitable for various repair and DIY projects. Customers praised the quality of the taps and dies, as well as the wide range of sizes included. However, some users encountered issues with the tap and die wrenches, which were reported to be poorly designed and unable to securely hold the smaller components. There were also concerns about inconsistencies between the tap and die sizes, with the threads not always matching up. Overall, the set seems adequate for basic tasks but may not be suitable for more precise or demanding applications, particularly when working with smaller metric sizes.

Hanson makes good quality tools. I bought this kit because it contains some bits of smaller size and also comes with the big ones that I use as doubles for the big die set I have. The kit was on sale so the decision was even easier.

Good quality
I have an SAE set but found myself buying a couple of metric taps as I needed them. This rounds out my collection. They're good quality and a good value.

tap and die different thread! cant use together
well I found out when it comes to metric tap and die's there are 2 threads. The die is for say standard metric bolts. but the tap is for cap type bolts. These cap bolts are made with a, i think it was called an oxide coating. They are black compared to silver like regular bolts. So in all I'm saying that the tap and the die are different threads in this package.. they are not the same. The die is m5x.8 and the tap is m5x.80. the tap is what I was needing. so all ended out ok.

Good Taps & Dies, Tools Junk
The set of taps and dies are a quality product at a good price, less that $3 each. But the die and tap wrench tools are a piece of junk. The die wrench is greatly oversize and will not hold the die in use no mater how much you tighten the screw. The tap wrench will not tighten on any of the taps. I had to use a wrench from an old set.

Complete metric kit
It has all the metric sizes I need plus some. The tap was sharp and easily cut the threads I needed. The package is very hard to open.

Tap wrench is junk
Taps might work fine but I won't know because the wrench is junky and won't fit the taps straight at all. Just make a decent wrench so I can use it. Will be returning

Price too high
I looked at this set many times, but I couldn't buy it. I only need one piece in the set. Why can't taps and dies be sold separately? Also, the package has lots of information lacking. Such as the pitch for each size die? 3 mm x ?? It would be nice to list the specs. The website specs are even worse, under metric sizes it lists the non-standard SAE units. What the **** is a 6-32 thread? Is that 32 threads per 6 inches? Or a 6 inche bolt with 32 threads. These SAE units are stupid.
