In-Store Exclusive

This one's worth the trip to the store.

Brands like Weber, Milwaukee, Yeti, and DeWalt restrict where their products can be sold online — and for good reason. In-store buyers get authentic products, full manufacturer warranty, and access to pricing that simply isn't allowed to be advertised on the web.

  • Authorized dealer network · Full manufacturer warranty & support
  • Guaranteed authentic · No counterfeits, no gray-market resellers
  • The brands set these standards · Be wary of sellers who don't follow them

Every order helps keep your local hardware store on the corner.

Why we built NHG
You might find it for less locally. Independent retailers often offer competitive pricing — some products are even cheaper in-store than online.
Real expert advice — not search results. Independent hardware staff know their inventory and the local conditions you're working in.
Keep the neighborhood working. Every dollar spent at an independent retailer returns roughly 3x more to your local economy than at a national chain.

About Product Overview

Introducing the Milwaukee Hex Lok Metric Tap and Die Set, a 17-piece kit designed for metric threading with precision and durability. Built for professional work and serious DIY projects, this set brings reliable metalworking capabilities into one compact, organized package.

Designed for metric applications, it enables you to repair damaged threads or create new metric threads in steel, aluminum, and other common metals. Whether you’re refreshing a mower deck, rebuilding engine mounts, or fabricating custom hardware, you’ll appreciate the clean, accurate thread cuts this set delivers.

The Hex Lok line from Milwaukee is engineered for dependable performance when every turn counts. This kit combines taps and dies in a single, portable collection, so you can carry, store, and select the right tool quickly on busy benches or crowded job sites.

With 17 pieces in a clamshell package, you have a broad range of metric sizes at your fingertips. The focused metric scope is ideal for professionals who work exclusively with metric fasteners, and for hobbyists who want a dedicated, all-in-one solution rather than mixing SAE options.

Ideal for:

  • Professional machinists and shop technicians who frequently work with metric fasteners
  • Fabrication shops and metalworking enthusiasts building or repairing equipment
  • Automotive hobbyists performing on-vehicle restoration or bench repairs

Key benefits and practical notes

  • Complete 17-piece metric set in a durable clamshell, designed for quick access and portability.
  • Metric-focused tooling narrows down the guesswork to the most common thread sizes you’ll encounter in metalwork.
  • Durable Milwaukee construction provides long-lasting performance in busy shop environments.
  • Versatile use cases include thread repair, refurbishment, and custom fastener creation for projects across automotive, DIY, and industrial settings.

Tips for best results: apply a suitable tapping or cutting fluid to reduce friction, drill and pilot holes to the correct size, maintain steady, straight cuts, and regularly back off to clear chips. After use, wipe dies clean and dry to preserve their edge and prevent corrosion.

In short, the Milwaukee Hex Lok Metric Tap and Die Set delivers focused metric capability in a single, organized kit—built for accuracy, durability, and efficiency on every project.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
