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