A tap wrench is an adjustable tool that allows users to securely hold taps in order to rotate them. This wrench can be customized to fit different-size taps; the general size categories include 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch, with larger sizes available for taps larger than 1 inch.
It is essential to get the size of the tap wrench right so it fits securely on the tap. An ill-fitting wrench might be too small, causing it to slide and not grip the tap correctly; however, if it is too large, it won’t even fit on the tap. To help you select the most suitable size for your task, refer to the following chart which displays the common sizes of tap wrenches and their corresponding taps.
Measurement of Tap Wrenches
The ideal size of wrench for 1/4 inch or smaller taps is 1/4 inch.
A 3/8 inch-sized wrench is the perfect fit for taps that require a maximum of 3/8 inch in size.
For taps with a diameter up to or below one-half inch, this wrench is the right fit.
Wrenches of 1 inch size are optimal to fit taps of that size or lower.
For those taps that are larger than one inch in size, there are tap wrenches available in bigger sizes.
It is vital that the tap wrench is the perfect size for the tap – one too small and it will fail to clamp onto the tap firmly, whereas one too large will not fit at all. To assist you in finding the right one, we have compiled a size chart below which showcases typically used sized wrenches and their corresponding taps.
Selecting the Appropriate Tap Wrench Size
The span and strength of this wrench is perfect for nuts or taps that are no more than 1/4 inch!
For taps measuring 3/8″ or less, the ideal wrench to use is the 3/8″ -sized one.
A 1/2 inch wrench can be employed to snuggly secure taps measuring at least a half inch or less.
A 1 inch wrench is the perfect tool for any taps that need a fastening that is 1 inch or smaller.
For bigger taps measuring over one inch in diameter, tap wrenches are also available in larger sizes.
