Went to two local big box stores and one hardware store to shop. I would have spent about $30 for what I needed just for that one thread size. I decided instead to order this tap and die set, and I am glad that I did. The ratcheting feature of the die handle is quite cool! Build quality is awesome! ## Frequently Bought Together - GEARWRENCH 42 Pc.
