Built for Real Farm Work
This tap handles the thread sizes you’ll commonly encounter on tractor hydraulic systems, loader attachments, and implement connections. Whether you’re repairing stripped threads on a hydraulic fitting or cleaning up rusty bolt holes in brackets and mounting points, the 1/2″-13 thread pitch is one of the most useful sizes to have in your toolbox.
Made to Last
Farm repair work demands tools that can handle dirty, rusty conditions and tough materials. This tap is made from high-speed steel that stays sharp through repeated use and won’t chip or dull when cutting through the hardened steel you’ll find on equipment frames and housings.
Good to Know
Start your tap straight and turn it slowly—rushing leads to broken taps and ruined parts. Use cutting oil or even diesel fuel to lubricate the threads and help clear chips. Back the tap out a quarter turn every few turns forward to break the chips and keep things cutting smoothly. If you hit resistance, don’t force it—back out and clear the chips first.
