Several vacuum press builders have asked me to add a pipe tap to the catalog of parts needed for the kits I offer. They are the best pipe taps I could find for the money. These taps have the correct thread configuration for the brass fittings sold on our website. They easily create threads in the PVC caps on the vacuum press kits and vacuum clamping jigs.

  • Rugged high carbon steel construction for the most demanding jobs
  • Polished flute aids in chip removal to produce a cleaner thread
  • Ideal for cutting internal threads in most metals, plastics, and nonfibrous materials 
  • 8 to 10 threads chamfered for easy starting

Be sure to select the appropriate size option!
Note that pipe tap sizes do not refer to diameter.
