Shop Tap Wrenches

Tap Wrenches are for holding taps, drills, reamers and other small tools to be turned by hand. They are properly heat treated to withstand ordinary shop use. The jaws conform to the tool being held, making it rigid and less apt to loosen.


93 T-Handle Tap Wrenches
The 93 T-Handle Tap Wrenches are for holding taps, drills, reamers and other small tools to be turned by hand. They are properly heat treated to withstand ordinary shop use. The jaws conform to the tool being held, making it rigid and less apt to loosen.

The 93D, E and F sizes are identical in construction to the 93A, B and C models, except that the bodies are proportionately longer. These longer tap wrenches are very handy in machine, automobile service and aviation repair shops because they eliminate the need for stocking special long taps for depths which cannot be reached with shorter wrenches. Sliding handle is frictionally held, permitting the handle to be removed or repositioned.

NOTE: These tools are designed to hold square shanks. Round shanks can be gripped, but care must be used. Excessive  tightening may break the binding nut.


91 Tap Wrenches
The 91 Tap Wrenches are strong and well proportioned. They are nicely finished and the gripping surfaces are properly tempered. They will firmly hold square or round shanks. They are plunger operated by knurled sleeve – the spring inside the sleeve causes plunger to back off when pressure is removed.

NOTE: Round shanks can be gripped, but care must be used. Excessive pressure may break the moveable V-jaw.
