Thanks,

www.namrick.co.uk do either individual taps/dies or boxed sets BSF 1/4" - 1/2", BA 0 - 10. My catalogue is an old one so no good me giving you prices.

Philip

Yes but do not have the details with me. Will find them and put them on the forum tomorrow. From memory they are HSS and are in Devon and you can pick individual ones or sets.

Just ordered from Namrick - their stock is impressive.

Well done Ian,
It pays to support firms like this, not the cheapest but how would we look after our cars if they did not exist?

Absolutely.
And even more so for my Tiger Moth which is also BSF/BA throughout. I have to use aircraft certified stock on that, and it's many times the price of the commercial nuts and bolts from Namrick.
Just about every nut and bolt in my Tiger has been replaced with American stock over the years, but I'm getting it back to 100% BSF/BA per original. Hugely expensive, but I'm determined to make this the best and most accurate Tiger restoration to date.
