I'm purchasing a tapping head in the next 24 hours, my problem is the sizes they do/cut off at.
So the 6" does M4 to 1/2'
The 6.5" does M5 to 1/2"
Then there are smaller ones that do M1.4 to M7
I probably do M12 the most, but very small, 3-4mm just as much. For those of you that use self reversing tapping heads, whats your go to? Do you find one you use more than others? I obviously need 2, but I will only purchase one for the time being. I feel like since larger tend to be riskier, start with the large one, but I deal with almost exclusively SS, so everything is in that risky realm. Is there something I'm missing out on that would get me sub 4mm and go up to 12mm?
Thanks Mateys!
