Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"It’s a very high quality cutting oil and in machine shops, it's primarily used as a cutting oil for Tap and Die work as well as single point threading. However, it can work as a good cutting oil to do small metal cutting jobs in a DIY home operation. If you’re cutting a mild steel like 4140, (non-heat-treated state), you can quickly work-harden the surface of the material to a state beyond the ability to be cut drilled, or machine in any way by any tool steel cutters at all!"
"I'M a retired certified machinist / Mechanical engineer."
"This cutting oil makes your job go so much easier and makes your drill bits last a lot longer."
"Drilling through steel I remembered I had this so I put a few drops on and the bit seemed to cut like going through butter."
"If you love to make holes through metals, use this oil, if you don't, don't come here and complain that your drill's bits are all dull."
"if you are a machinist or diemaker, then you know this is the best for threading or tapping steel."
"I suppose that professionals would buy cheaper tapping fluid if there were others that were as good."
"I can personally attest to it helping drill copper, bronze, mild steel, hardened tool steel, titanium, and aluminum."
Best Brazed Tools
The American Carbide Tool E-style K21 grade carbide-tipped brazed tool bit has a neutral cutting direction and a sharp tip with a 60-degree angle for fine threading on steel and steel alloys. The tool has a side cutting edge and end cutting edge, with the tool shape style defining which cutting edge is principal and auxiliary. A right-hand tool has its principal cutting edge on the right side of the tool to feed into the workpiece from right to left, a left-hand tool feeds into the workpiece from left to right, and a neutral-hand tool will cut either left to right or right to left. The side cutting and end cutting edge angles, in combination with the angle at which the tool is positioned in relation to the workpiece (also called the lead angle), influence the tool's cutting shape and action. Positive rake angle provides a sharp edge for making continuous cuts.

"There is NOTHING on the tool that says where this vise is made."

"I user these on aluminum plate to countersink a bunch of screw holes and they work fantastic."
"Very well made and effective."
"My feelings are KEO- If you cant spend 5 extra minutes to take burs off and make sure the cutting edges are sharp, I will find someone who will. In fact this is why I wanted a set from Keo- to have a nice sharp set that I could use and I got basically the same thing as the inexpensive chinese set my friend has. If Keo had cared, they would have asked me to send them in, offered to send me a set that was checked and double checked,\. and then --when receiving the set I sent them, would have done whatever to correct."

If you want the best, payseven times as much and purchase from a reputable American manufacturer. Some people give less than five star reviews for these bits complaining that they are cheap Chinese junk. I can't understand reviewers that buy a $10 tool, then complain because it is of lower quality than a $50 version."
"I bought this set several yrs ago for myself first, and they have done what I'd expect from them."
"These bits would not be suitable to use for making tapered holes as each bit comes to an extended point."

"I had a smaller version of this kit for many years and it has been a go to for my day to day uses."

"Only drawback is when doing higher angle cuts more then 40deg I had to get creative and use a piece of L bracket to space the tubing down further."
"The pipe clamp has a little more play than I'd like, and the degree arc that's sort of attached/sort of not, is also is less than confidence inspiring."
"The tube youre cutting sits just a hair off center, but besides that this has worked wonders for building roll cages in a few of my cars."
