I used this as a gage when I was thread milling internal threads. I did not use it to cut threads just as a gage. nice quality tap.

Did the job nicely cutting through 1-1/8" chrome molly tubing with 1/4" wall thickness for making my own drag link and tie rod end. I was fortunate to find this size since the tube and its perspective diameter center is just what was needed to tap without drilling the required 5/8" hole. Make sure to use plenty cutting oil, also being sure to only turn the tap wrench about a half turn, then back/reverse it out until you feel the crunch of the cut material releasing, add more oil to each side of the cutting tap then another half turn until finished. I also removed the tap at the halfway point and blew of the gobs of metal debris, then it finished nicely. If your making your own drag link, you must be sure to purchase left and right hand threaded taps since the tie rod ends must be done this way to function/adjust correctly.
