M5 Tap Handle

myminifactory

I created a larger M5 tap handle for tapping aluminum. I had an abundance of aluminum extrusion that needed to be tapped, so I sought out something more comfortable than the handle I was using previously. The holes on the side must be tapped before installing the M5 screws. Parts: 2 - M5x45mm screw 1 - Larger M5 Tap* - This one works much better than the 4 flute designs I was using earlier. It requires less force, doesn't clog, and remains sharp after tapping 100 holes. Cutting Oil* - if tapping metal.
