Anyone have a 1/16" npt (pipe thread) tap I could could beg, borrow, or steal from you for a little bit? I need to tap 8 holes in aluminum, and I'd like to do it this wekeend if possible. I just don't know of any good tool places that would be open on the weekend that might have it and not want an arm and an eye for it. McMaster-Carr gets $12 for them, while Grainger is almost double that!

Wonder if Sears would have one?

As an FYI, these are the taps you use for the direct port fogger nozzles...so if you have a direct port setup you might have one

 

Sears wont have em, i tried there for a 1/4npt tap the only npt tap they had is 1/8 although i found the 1/4npt tap at home depot, and it cam with the bit, might want to check there, if not you'll probably have to order one.....

Talk to you later,
Greg

 

Sears most likely will not have it you will have to go to a supply house.

I got mine @ Home Depot also. You can only get it with the drill bit. I looked everywhere until I found it there. Sears may very well have it. If you can't find it, you can come over @ get mine, but it's quite a drive for a tap.

 

samll tip for you.... when you are tapping, only go in as far as you need to, this will allow a nice tight fit in the intake!
