If you need to drill the correct pilot hole and cut M5 x 0.8 threads without piecing together separate bits and taps, this Aceteel 2-piece set keeps it straightforward. It includes a Ti-coated M5 x 0.8 tap and a matching 4.2mm drill bit—ideal for quick repairs, hobby work, and light shop tasks.

Both tools are made from M2 high-speed steel and finished with a titanium coating to help improve wear resistance and extend service life. The set is intended for use across a wide range of metals including copper, alloy steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and iron plate.

  • Includes 1 pc M5 x 0.8 Ti-coated tap and 1 pc 4.2mm Ti-coated drill bit
  • M5 tap dimensions: 58mm length; 21mm thread head; 5.0mm shank diameter; 4.0mm x 4.0mm square head
  • 4.2mm drill bit dimensions: 74mm length; 4.2mm cutting diameter
  • M2 high-speed steel construction with Ti-coated finish for improved wear resistance
  • Suitable for many metals including copper, alloy steel, cast iron, aluminum, brass, and iron plate

For best results, match your setup to the tool style: the drill bit features a straight handle design, and the tap uses a square head (4.0mm x 4.0mm) for use with an appropriate tap wrench.
