Pipe tap works great. Cleans old tee up so new piece of pipe can be installed cleanly; great proce as well.

Excellent tap, especially for the price! And i REALLY used it, for several things. Such as an iron engine block, & it never dulled/warped before tapping delicate/fine aluminums, in which a bad tap could easily misshapen &/or destroy. Especially bigger taps, 3/4″ & larger, where more torque is needed

It worked very well! It saved me hours of work — I used it to salvage an existing steel pipe connection! It was well worth the money — it is a well crafted tap!
