View Full Version : Question about tapping
If I wanted to tap an MPA-3 for a 10-32 QEV, what size drill bit would I use? I've never tapped anything before. Also, what is the thread pattern for a clippard QEV?
Thanks.

Cool. Thanks.
I'm still a little confused though. Don't I need to know the thread count of the QEV so I know what tap to use?

if 10-32 is the size of the qev then you need to use a 10-32 tap. 10 refers to the size and 32 is threads per inch.
Oh. I'm much more of a machine shop newb then I thought. :tard:
Thanks
