DrillAmerica Spiral Point Taps Editorial Review
**** The Drill America DWTG12-13LH 12-13 High Speed Steel Left Hand Spiral Point 3 Flute Tap has garnered a mixed but predominantly positive reception from customers who have put it to the test. Many users praise its effectiveness in handling specialized tasks, particularly with worn left-hand thread lug nuts. Customers commend the tap for being strong and durable, with several instances highlighting its longevity and ability to create clean threads on multiple occasions. However, there are cautionary tales as well. While some users experienced success with the tap, others reported issues with brittleness, leading to breakage during initial use. This seems to stem from the challenges often encountered when tapping smaller holes, suggesting that careful preparation and technique are crucial for optimal performance. Many customers noted that, in comparison to cheaper alternatives, this tap holds up better and maintains its integrity after multiple uses, particularly in light gauge steel. The price point is also seen as favorable, especially when compared to local hardware stores. Some customers expressed disappointment at the product's country of manufacture, wishing for it to be made in the USA, although they conceded that it is better than many other foreign options. In summary, the Drill America tap is noted for its effectiveness and durability when used correctly, though potential buyers should remain aware of the risk of breakage if proper technique isn't observed. **
