Lang ToolsGame 3 Limas of Threads

I only bought these files because I had previously used them on the damaged threads of a hydraulics cylinder piston and they really got me out of the deep end.

As you would hope to receive,nice set

Comes in real handy repairing threads

Corté una varillas de 1/4 para usarlas de pernos de repisas flotantes, al cortarlas obvio se corta la rosca, se daña, use esta herramienta y venía la medida perfecta, en menosnde 3 minutos reoare 6 varillas para poder meter la tuerca. Excelente

I debated between buying this set of files and buying some made by another company. I had never even heard of Lang Tools and I already owned a file from the other manufacturer so I was familiar with their quality. What swayed my purchase is that these were actually made here in the US (vs the other company which used to manufacture in the US and doesn't any longer) and they were less expensive than the other set. Given the price point though, I wasn't sure what kind of quality to expect.I must say I was pleasantly suprised and impressed with the quality. Some background: I was a jet engine mechanic in a former life and I also do most of my own maintenance on my motorcycle so I know my way around a tool box. And I know how to tell a quality tool from a crap one as well as which tools it's worth spending money on for good quality. Files absolutely fall into the category of 'spend the money for quality' because a shitty file will ruin whatever it's used on. Are these files as good as having a tap and die set for thread repair? Well, no. But a good tap and die set will liberate considerably more money from your wallet too. Are these files worth having on hand for when you encounter bunged threads that just need a little dressing up? Absolutely.

Works great for chasing treats on bolts that are hard to find

I try not to get into the habit of using these... But they work great when needed.
