Starrett T-Handle Tap Wrench, 93C - 1/4 To 1/2 Size For Holding Taps, Drills, Reamers, Small Tools With Long Center Body, Ri

The Starrett 93 Series T-Handle Tap Wrench Is For Holding Taps, Drills, Reamers, And Other Small Tools To Be Turned By Hand. It Is Properly Heat Treated To Withstand Ordinary Shop Use. The Body Is Centered, Enabling The Worker To Use It On Lathe Centers Or On An Upright Drilling Machine To Start The Tap Straight. The T Handle S Jaws Conform To The Tool That S Being Held, Making It Extra Rigid And Less Apt To Loosen Its Hold. It Has A Sliding Handle That Is Frictionally Held, And It Can Be Removed Entirely Or Positioned So That Leverage Can Be Applied When Working In Close Quarters. This Longer Tap Wrench Is Very Handy In Machine, Automobile Service, And Aviation Repair Shops Because It Eliminate The Need For Stocking Special Long Taps For Depths Which Cannot Be Reached With Shorter Wrenches. 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. The L.S. Starrett Company Manufactures Precision Measuring Tools, Metrology, And Testing Equipment, And Saw Blade Products. The Company, Founded In 1880, Is Headquartered In Athol, Ma.
