Understanding Taps & Dies
Taps — Cutting Internal Threads

Taper Taps: Gradual lead-in for starting new threads in through-holes. The most common starting tap.
Plug Taps: Moderate taper for general-purpose threading in both through-holes and blind holes.
Bottom Taps: Minimal taper for threading to the bottom of blind holes. Use after a taper or plug tap.

Dies — Cutting External Threads

Hex Dies: Six-sided design fits standard wrenches — ideal for tight spaces and field work.
Round Dies: Used with a die stock handle for cutting new threads on rods, bolts, and pipes.
Thread Size: Always match the die to your material's diameter and threads-per-inch (TPI) or metric pitch.
