Default chasers

For those of you that have them, are they marked with an undersize on the "cleaner" tap shank, I have a couple in standard thread and they are marked with a .010 under stamp/stencil...?????????

I have used both, they don't say anything like that on them.

Just "ARP 11MX2.0" "ARP 8MX1.25 Thread Cleaner"

The package specifically says they are thread cleaners, not chasers or taps.

My threads actually got messed up a bit when removing the bolt so I wanted a good quality chaser.

Not worth the money! Just make one out of an old long headbolt...grind two grooves in either side and bam you got a thread chaser!

Using an old bolt is not a safe way to do it!

This thread is just like the pulley install thread. Get the proper tool....use it and then SELL IT!

I bought both ARP chasers and sold them after I used them. Cost be about $10 out of my pocket said and done.
