It it cheaply made and poorly put together. Parts not right, nor labeled right and needs to be sent back to get the right parts labeled right.

As more and more Craftsman products are switching to Chinese production (alot of american tool brands are doing it too), it is getting rarer to find tools still made in USA, get this while it still is american made, you'll be glad you did!

These are really thread chasers. I used this tool set to clean up some threads on a cylinder head and it worked. It removed some dirt and little bit of metal shavings from the threaded hole. Just go slow when you turn it. It's better to use this tool if you want to clean up threads, if you want to cut new threads you would use a tap which is a different tool.

Made In The USA. Model# 52105 Is Not A Tap & Die - it is a rethreading kit, It is not intended for cutting new threads. The items are cutting tools and have a limited life expectancy and Do Not have a Lifetime Warranty. In the event this set looks familiar It should, it is a rebranded Kastar product. As you well know Kastar specializes in a number of areas, including rethreading tools, so the quality is definitely there. With the proper use this set will allow you to quickly repair damaged and nicked threads on various bolts and nuts. 48 pc. SAE & Metric Thread Restorer Kit # 971 2750 is another Kastar product as well. Ensure you check the included sizes prior to purchase.

I am an engine machinist and builder whereas I am constantly going over and repairing threads. This kit is excellent! I have used it on a daily basis since I bought it and is much better than using taps and dies which will remove material. I would recomend this set highly.

I got this 40 pc. set a few weeks ago. The most useful part of the set for me is the thread chaser. I work at an auto shop and I use almost all Craftsman tools and this is the best for the price.

Tap and Die set is value priced and had the sizes I needed.

This is a rebranded Kastar product. Kastar specializes in a number of areas, including rethreading tools, so the quality is definitely there, but with the added convenience of Sears/Craftsman service. A rethreading kit is far preferrable to a standard tap and die kit, as you only want to chase the threads and clean them up, not cut entirely new ones. This kit is nicely comprehensive for most tasks and carries a great price. No, the warranty isn't "lifetime", but this is a wear-product. Sandpaper doesn't carry a lifetime warranty. Saw blades don't carry a lifetime warranty. Taps and dies that wear out aren't going to carry a lifetime warranty, either.

You would be better off just running your bolt through the thread you are trying to clean up. This is not even close to the sharpness or hardness of a standard tap. Waste of money. Had to go out and buy a real tap to clean up the threads. Would've bought the tap in the first place, but Sears did not have the size I needed.
