I am looking for M18 x .75 and M19 x .75 dies. I dunno if they even exist or if they have to be cut on a cnc.

Thanks guys.

I dont know if they exist either, but if they do, I would try McMasterCarr or McFadden/Dale

Those are bastard sizes. You'll probably have to go to a machine shop supply house to get them. Expect the bastard sizes to cost more.

I have ordered custom taps from Traver's Tools. www.travers.com

They were worked very well and were made in the USA and not that expensive.

Travers was one of the places I looked for the dies and didn't see them listed.

Most supply houses can supply bastard taps/dies-for a price. I paid almost $100 for right and left hand 11/16-16. My 3X56 tap was horribly expensive until I looked at Brownells.
