## Description

Product Description The Starrett 93 T-Handle Tap Wrench is for holding taps, drills, reamers and other small tools to be turned by hand. It is properly heat treated to withstand ordinary shop use. The jaw conforms to the tool being held, making it rigid and less apt to loosen. The wrench has a sliding handle that is frictionally held. This feature permits the handle to be removed entirely or positioned so that leverage can be applied when working in close quarters. 50mm (2") Length, 1.6-4.7mm (1/16-3/16") Tap Size. From the Manufacturer Starrett No. 93 Tap Wrenches are for holding taps, drills, reamers and other small tools to be turned by hand. They are designed to hold square shanks. Round shanks can be gripped, but care must be used.

Review: This is the tap handle that all the others attempt to copy - Unlike hardware store tap handles, these tap wrenches grip your taps without slipping. Just do yourself a favor and throw out your old ones and get one of these. These are made very well and just work. I started out with buying a 93A. That handle wildly exceeded my expectations. While looking through my tapping supplies I saw I did not have a tap handle in this rage. So I got this 93B. Eventually I'll add a 93C to the collection. These handles are that good. What is nice about the 93 series handles is the dimple in the handle which is inline with the tap axis. This means you can use a spring loaded tap follower to guarantee flawless tapped holes in your work. Once the hole is drilled, leave the workpiece in the vise. Install the tap follower in the chuck. The tap handle (and the tap) will be in perfect alignment. If you drilled the correct size hole for your tap, the threads will come out beautiful. These tap handles are made to last a lifetime. They are exceptionally well made and a work of art in themselves. Once you have one of these handles, do yourself a favor and buy nicer taps. Buy them from (any) machine tool supplier, they are worlds better than 98% of the hardware store items. A fresh quality tap in a Starrett 93B cuts so finely, it almost brings one to tears. Buy good taps, they are only a few dollars more, they last longer, and are truer to size.
Review: Starrett Products are GREAT! - Starrett quality is always top notch. Their stuff is all made here in the US by a company that takes pride in producing measuring devices and tools that are of superior quality. They charge for that quality, but with all the junk out there these days, finding high quality tools has become more difficult. I have hurt myself several times in the past with cheap tools that broke and sent me to the hospital. I have had major work undone because measuring devices were not accurate. I own three costly Starrett dial indicators and two magnetic bases. They are absolutely wonderful and dead accurate. I have become a strong fan of this company because of these items, so if I see Starrett as a choice of maker for something I need I now place that item at the top of my list for consideration. I happened to have the money for this, needed it soon, and hey, it is made by Starrett. So I got it. This has been a solid choice. I usually use my smaller tap handle, but recently had work come up where I needed to do some tapping with larger ones with .25" shanks. This one worked very well. It clamped down to the tap tightly and stayed that way. It released the tap with no trouble afterward. The only thing I am not crazy about is that the handle comes off. I can just see myself losing it. My other tap handles have detents in the ends so that you can snap them in place at the very end for more leverage - and you cannot easily remove the handle because of this. The Starrett handle comes off easily and lacks the detent that allows you to use the handle at the very end. Still, it is a very small thing. I have never really needed to use that sort of force to tap anything in the past and probably never will. I just got used to knowing that the handle cannot come off. I will simply have to pay attention when I toss this one back into my tool chest so that the handle does not come off and end up in another drawer. Well made tool. Excellent USA company with people who answer the phone and talk to you if you have issues or questions. I would highly recommend Starrett products to anyone who wants machine shop quality measuring devices - or a really nice tap handle.

thanks.**
A: In my 93A wrench there is a 3mm hole in the back. About the other I don`t know because I don`t own them

**Q: will this fit a 6-32 tap?  If not can you guide me to one that will?  thank you.**
A: 6/32 is 3/16 and that is 4,8mm.  there`s a little differens between Us inc and europeanbut if you look for mm you are good to go with Starrett 93a!

**Q: Is this american made?  don't see coo in the specs.  thanks**
A: Not sure.  Mine does not say.  On Starrett's web site they list six manufacturing sites in the U.S., one in Brazil, one in Scotland and one in China.  Wherever mine was made it is the quality you expect from this company.

**Q: Which handle size will work with a screw extractor set?**
A: 1/4-1/2” size more than likely. All depends on the square drive size on your extractors

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Machining for machinists.
*by C***H on February 9, 2026*

The machining here is buttery smooth. I like that it holds my 3 and 4mm taps without feeling that the threads on the wrench itself need to be chased before chasing the target. I frequently reach for a smaller tap size, and find that the the tap slips out of the wrench. Not with this tap wrench. I wish that it held my 6mm taps, however. If you are tapping for 5mm or smaller, you will appreciate the quality of this. Great tools geared to those that appreciate tools, IMO.
