Klein Tools 32217 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What tap sizes come in the Klein 32217 drill tap kit?
The Klein 32217 8-piece drill tap kit covers six thread sizes: 6-32, 8-32, 10-24, 10-32, 12-24 and 1/4-20. The 6-32 and 8-32 are doubled up (two of each), which is why an 8-piece kit only has six distinct sizes. Those two are the sizes electricians burn through fastest on device and panel mounting, so the duplicates are there on purpose.
2) How thick a piece of metal can these Klein drill taps actually go through?
Up to 10 gauge metal. The 32217 taps are rated for aluminum, brass, copper, plastic and mild steel in that thickness range. Anything heavier than 10 gauge, structural steel or thick plate, is outside what these are built for and you want a separate drill-then-tap operation with a cutting fluid instead.
3) Will these drill taps work in an impact driver, or do I need a drill?
Both. Every bit in the Klein 32217 kit has a 1/4-inch hex quick connect shank, so it drops straight into an impact driver collet or chucks into a standard drill. That is the main reason this style beats a T-handle tap wrench overhead in a panel, you can run it one-handed off the tool already on your belt.
4) Do I still need to pre-drill a pilot hole before tapping with these?
No. Each bit drills, taps and deburrs in one pass, so you go from bare sheet to a finished thread without changing tools or matching a tap drill chart. That is the whole point of the design, and it is why one kit replaces a drill index plus a tap set for light-gauge work.
5) Is high speed steel good enough for tapping mild steel, or should I be looking at cobalt?
High speed steel is what the 32217 bits are made from, and it handles the materials this kit is rated for: aluminum, brass, copper, plastic and mild steel to 10 gauge. HSS holds an edge far longer than carbon steel taps. Cobalt only starts to matter on stainless and hardened alloys, which are outside this kit's rated application anyway.
6) Will the 32217 tap the right threads for strut and enclosure hardware?
For the common electrical machine screw threads, yes. 10-32 and 1/4-20 are the sizes you hit most on enclosure covers, ground lugs and bracket hardware, and both are in the kit along with 6-32, 8-32, 10-24 and 12-24. It is sized for sheet metal enclosures and light bracketry, not for tapping into structural steel.
7) Klein 32217 kit dimensions and weight for stocking a service van?
The case measures 4.7 x 4.0 x 1.3 inches and the whole kit weighs 1.5 pounds, so it fits a pouch pocket or a drawer in a van bin without taking a slot you would rather give to something bigger. Individual bits run 4 inches overall length.
8) What is the Klein part number for the 8-piece drill tap kit?
Klein Tools 32217. That is the manufacturer part number to quote or reorder against, and it covers the full 8-piece set in its case.
9) Can I run these taps dry or do I need cutting oil?
Run them perpendicular to the work at moderate speed with steady pressure, then back the bit out slowly with the tool still turning so the threads come out clean. That withdrawal step is where most stripped holes happen. The kit is built for one continuous pass on light-gauge aluminum, brass, copper, plastic and mild steel.
