STROXX Tap and Drill Set with Wrench, M3-M12, 15 Pieces, 500-962
STROXX 500-962 is a set for cutting internal metric threads from M3 to M12 that includes not only the taps but also the seven matching tapping drills and a tap wrench. Article number 500-962, EAN 5707436091194.
What is in the case
The set holds 15 pieces: seven single-pass taps - M3, M4, M5, M6, M8, M10 and M12; seven HSS twist drills - 2.5, 3.3, 4.2, 5.0, 6.8, 8.5 and 10.2 mm; and one tap wrench covering the whole M3-M12 range. Everything sits in a plastic case with a labelled slot for each tool.

Single-pass taps, DIN 352 form B
Traditional hand tapping needs three taps per size - taper, second and plug. Here each size is a single tap that cuts a finished thread in one pass. That is possible because of the 4-5 thread lead with a spiral point grind (form B to DIN 352), which pushes the chip forward, ahead of the tap.
Which is why it is a through-hole set
That long lead and forward chip ejection are exactly what makes these taps a through-hole tool. In a blind hole the chip has nowhere to go and the thread cannot be taken to the bottom - that job needs a spiral-flute tap that pulls the chip back out.
The drills are part of the system, not an extra
The tapping drill diameter decides whether the finished thread will carry load. These seven drills are precisely the core-hole sizes for coarse metric threads to DIN 13: 2.5 mm for M3, 3.3 mm for M4, 4.2 mm for M5, 5.0 mm for M6, 6.8 mm for M8, 8.5 mm for M10 and 10.2 mm for M12. No table to look up and no size to get wrong.
Material and applications
The taps are ground HSS-G and are rated for hand and machine use. The set suits repair and assembly work in structural steel, cast iron, aluminium, brass and plastics - cutting new threads, and repairing or chasing existing ones. Hardened and stainless steels call for cobalt taps and are outside what this set is built for.
