This tap worked great. I had to install a front sight on a shotgun and the screw post on it was 6-48. I cleaned up the existing hole with the proper drill bit. Used this tap to thread it and got the project done. It worked flawlessly. I am glad I purchased this and got it done.

I purchased this item knowing that the description was wrong as the tool I was working on didn't really matter either way, description needs corrected though. It did not tap in hardened steel, did in softer metals.

This tap works very well. Keep in mind your success is aided with the proper size pilot hole. ( and some patience)

It’s a taper tap. The opposite of a bottoming tap. Cut fine.

I use Irwin taps mainly for gunsmithing purposes. I can't say enough regarding quality of product for the price. Get yourself a set!

A bottom tap normally has cutting threads very near to the tip. This allows you to thread shallow holes. This tap has a long conical projection which makes it impossible to tap shallow holes, such as front of receiver.
