Tork Craft 12pc Tap & Die Set Nr Set 12 With Screw Lock Low Strength TCTL030-10
At a Glance: 12-piece tap & die set with low strength screw lock compound
The Tork Craft 12pc Tap & Die Set Nr Set 12 with Screw Lock Low Strength TCTL030-10 is a handy kit for cutting new threads and repairing damaged ones on bolts, nuts and internal threaded holes. It combines a selection of taps and dies with a low strength screw lock compound, giving you everything you need to clean up threads and then secure small screws and fasteners so they do not vibrate loose. Ideal for the home workshop, maintenance teams and light engineering tasks where clean, accurate threads matter.
Instead of supplying taps and dies on their own, this kit adds Tork Craft’s Screw Lock Low Strength TCTL030-10. You can cut or restore the thread and then apply the compound to help prevent loosening under vibration, while still allowing disassembly with normal hand tools – a practical combination for everyday repairs and assembly work.
Features
- 12-piece tap & die selection Includes a practical assortment of taps and dies for common thread cutting and repair jobs.
- Tap and die holders Dedicated handles help you keep the tool square to the workpiece for cleaner, more accurate threads.
- Screw Lock Low Strength TCTL030-10 Thread locking compound formulated for small fasteners that need to resist vibration but still be removable.
- Compact storage case Keeps taps, dies and screw lock together so the full kit is ready whenever a thread repair is needed.
Benefits
- Restore damaged threads: Clean up cross-threaded or slightly damaged bolts and holes instead of replacing them immediately.
- Create new threads: Cut threads into suitable metal stock when making custom fasteners or brackets.
- Reduce loosening from vibration: The low strength screw lock helps screws stay put in machinery, tools and equipment.
- Workshop essential: A neat, all-in-one kit that is easy to store and grab for quick repair and maintenance jobs.
Extra Information
- Suitable for use on mild steel and other common engineering metals within the capacity of the included taps and dies.
- Low strength screw lock is typically used on small fasteners where you may still need to remove the screw with hand tools later.
- Ideal for automotive, machinery, appliance and general workshop repairs where threads need to be tidied and secured.
- Always use a suitable cutting fluid or light oil when tapping and threading metal to improve finish and tool life.
Pro Tip
- When tapping a new thread, turn the tap forward about half a turn, then back it off a quarter turn to break the chip before continuing. This simple habit makes the cut smoother, reduces the risk of breaking the tap and leaves a cleaner thread for the screw lock to bite into.

Safety
- Wear eye protection when cutting or repairing threads to protect against metal swarf.
- Secure the workpiece firmly in a vice or clamp before tapping or threading.

- Use thread locking compound sparingly and keep it off skin and eyes; follow the instructions on the bottle.
