Default Taps and dies

Hanno,
The sizes are OK for your CMP. The important question is the material they are produced from. High Speed Steel (HSS) was the traditional material of high quality tooling. Recently cheap and nasty taps and dies are being manufactured in carbon steel and are at best useless.
