Pros & Cons
Pros
The components of the set are made of high quality steel. Bought two of these sets and had one of the originals that is badged as craftsman. Kastar/lang makes these for snap on, which means you're getting tool truck quality without paying tool truck p... Read More
After using this multiple times, i am happy to report it works incredibly well. Works perfectly and has gotten me out of quite a few predicaments. If you are the average joe/jane, however, this is still the perfect solution.
J. Diy's hex drive head is useful in tight, hard to reach areas. It quickly repairs threads and gets rid of rust in engine blocks, exhaust, and brakes.
The case is a good solid plastic and well organized. Comes with a very nice carrying case.
Cons
The metal used in these is such garbage a trashed drill bit went through it like butter. Oddly, the list price is shown as $124. Here it is discounted to $71, at sears it's discount to $44.

Price
Priced right and would make a great gift!
Has paid for itself many times over.

Shipping

I used the 1/4" -20 die the same day the set arrived to repair the defective threads on some camera mounts purchased elsewhere on amazon.
I started using, it the same day it arrived.
Competitiveness
Tools like this set are just as good and no different then the fancy name brands.
I did plenty of research and learned that some of the boutique companies sell this exact model and just swap out for a red or b... Read More

Tap and dies are meant for creating new threads or tackling severe damage by removing material and misusing them on existing threads risks misalignment and further damage
