050806015920 Para esos trabajos especiales, utiliza este jig de acero endurecido, Checker/Shortener, que hace que el afilado de tornillos a la longitud adecuada sea rápido y fácil.loose sloppy threads 24/11/2014
I bought this to cut down some 6-48 screws to fit in a Winchester 1300 shotgun receiver so they would stop just short of projecting into the receiver. I used brand new Brownells 6-48 Torx head screws.
The screws are a VERY loose fit in the threads - poor thread engagement - so despite the tool being at least 1/8" thick and there being several threads there, the screws are not held securely in the tool. The only way I could figure out to hold the screw steady while cutting it down was to "pinch" it from the head end of the screw and pull it back against the poorly-tapped threads to force a modicum of "thread engagement", keep the screw relatively square/plumb for the cut operation, and to keep some tension on the screw so it wouldn't wobble and spin around while I was cutting it with a dremel. Which means my thumb and forefinger got hot several times.
VERY dissatisfied with this product. I have already marked up the tool cutting the first screw with it, but I will be contacting Brownells about a refund. Of course, it will cost me about the same I paid for it to ship it back. Funny how that works... I "get" that Brownells has to make a profit to stay in business, but I expected the threads to be tapped a lot better for a tool specifially made to cut screws with. I also have no realistic expectation that these poorly tapped threads are going to do any significant amount of "chasing" the threads of the cut screw once I remove it from the tool.
Next time I will just make my own. I did a LOT better job of tapping the threads on my shotgun receiver and that was the first time I have EVER drilled and tapped threads on a gun part. There is almost zero screw wobble on my tapped threads.
Shame on you, Brownells.
What a GREAT idea !!! 06/06/2013
It is one of those things that I did not know existed. I now wonder how I ever got along without it. I salute you !!!
