Teng ToolsTTTD17 Rethreading Tap and Die Set (17 Pieces)

I'm a big fan of Teng stuff but this just doesn't make the grade , the M6 tap broke the first time I used it and that was only cleaning an existing thread after powder coating !

Iv used few of the taps mostly the smaller ones and there strong enough as long as you use them right. Nice box goes with all my other teng tools.

I thought that I had purchased a quality item manufactured by Teng.I brought it to have it on the shelf should I need a Tap and Die SetThe first time I used a "die" I was somewhat surprised to find that the relevant "die" did not replicate the metric thread pattern of a corresponding nut. It was a very inferior piece of equipment.This morning I used a 6mm tap in some mild steel and I was astounded to find that the tap had been rounded during the operation and it had not cut even a hint of a thread, it was softer that mild steel. The tap was rounded and had not cut anything.This kit is possibly the worst thing that I have ever purchased. I can only assume that it is a product that is counterfeit.The whole episode is compounded by the fact that I cannot establish who supplied this kit, it is supplied by "Amazon"Possibly the worst thing I have ever received and at £50 I would have expected much better from a well respected name such as Teng, this is probably not a Teng product.
