Description
From the sellerNice old Little Giant tap, made by Wells Brothers of Greenfield MA. 1 1/2” with Briggs Standard Threading (the precursor to the NPT Standard), which makes this tap a pretty old fella. Wells Bros was absorbed into Greenfield Tap and Die in 1912. One small chip to a tooth (see photos), but otherwise in quite nice condition. There is still some sharpness there too. Handsome old piece of antique American tooling. Thanks for looking!
