Split dies have a very good use. If nothing else, you'll have more respect for threading. I bought this die long before the screw size was offered in joint screws and joint protectors like Southwest. The original thought was delrin joint protectors at tournament's I set up at.
It paid off!

Really Bruce ???? HB sells 3/8 10 and 5/16 14 taps and dies ? When did you see cue making particular non-standard threads taps and dies sold at HB ?

You realize they do offer stuff other in store.

Special order out of their warehouse.

Think you need GOYA and work on all those Cue orders, customer want their Cues, and quit being asshat.

Btw Lows, and Home Depot also sell tapes & dies.

3/8-10 and 5/16-14 are NON STANDARDS SIZES, no, they don't. Like 4 people have already told you that.

Lots of non standard taps out there if you look around. I rounded up a 5/8-16 tap for threading the inside of my joint and shaft collars. Makes building them so much easier than live threading that particular piece. I wanted 16 threads instead of the standard 11 or 18 to make it easy to keep track of my half nut setting when live threading the wooden parts they screw on to. And sure enough it was a mouse click away.

Harbor Freight if you not going to beat to death, as their stuff is cheap but work. Not for full time craftsmen.

You are so unqualified to post in here, this post should evict you from any cue making discussion on the planet

I wonder if that's legit. It might be worth the $20 to find out.

It looks like that home depot listing is probably legit. Here is the actually manufacturer/company product link to a 5/16-14 taper tap. They also have plug and bottoming.
