Matco TR43K Thread Restoring Kit Rethreading Tap Die File Set NC NF Metric US

Matco Tools TR43K thread restoring kit — the tap, die and file set for saving damaged threads instead of cutting new ones. Made in U.S.A.

These are thread RESTORING chasers, not cutting taps and dies — exactly what you want for cleaning up buggered bolts, studs and threaded holes. As the case directions say: never use on hardened threads or to cut new threads.

WHAT IS IN THE CASE (41 pieces, counted from the photos)

• 6 NC (coarse) rethreading taps

• 6 NF (fine) rethreading taps

• 7 metric rethreading taps

• 7 NC hex rethreading dies

• 7 NF hex rethreading dies

• 6 metric hex rethreading dies

• 2 thread restoring files — TR1 (11 TPI, SAE) and a 3.00mm metric file

• Original red Matco case with the directions label inside the lid

PLEASE NOTE: the 6mm metric die slot is empty (you can see it in the photos) — every other slot is filled. Each piece is stamped with its size; check the close-up photos.

CONDITION

Used, working set with honest shop wear — pieces show use, the case is dirty with scuffs and has THREAD written on the lid in marker, exactly as shown. Nothing cleaned up for the photos.
