In this guide, we’ll walk you through what makes Hunter tap and die sets stand out, how they’re made, where they’re used, and why thousands of professionals in the UAE trust Midland Hardware for their tooling needs.
🧰 What Are Tap and Die Sets?
A tap and die set is a metalworking tool used to create screw threads. Taps are used to cut the female portion (like a nut), and dies cut the male part (like a bolt).
These tools are used to:
- Repair damaged threads
- Fabricate threaded components
- Match threads to international standards
- Perform quick, precise threading in workshops or on-site

🔍 Why Choose Hunter Tap and Die Sets?
Not all tap and die sets are made equal. Hunter is a globally recognised name in the field of threading tools. Here’s what sets Hunter products apart:
- Precision Ground Edges for smooth cutting
- Durable Alloy Steel Construction
- Long-lasting sharpness and reliability
- Suitable for both metric and imperial threading
Whether you’re working on automotive repairs, plumbing jobs, or mechanical fabrication, Hunter tap and die sets give you professional-grade results every time.
🛠️ How Are Tap and Die Sets (Hunter) Manufactured?
Hunter sets are manufactured using high-speed steel (HSS) and carbon alloy materials. These materials undergo a hardening and tempering process, which boosts durability and allows for clean threading without breakage or deformation.
Each set goes through:
- CNC precision machining
- Heat treatment for hardness
- Quality testing under torque and wear conditions
This makes them ideal for cutting into tough materials like steel, aluminium, and brass without compromising quality.
