🔍 Key Concepts

• Different types of taps and how they start and finish cutting threads • Common names for parts used in threading versus drilling operations • How pipe fittings, instruments, and machine tools are usually named in a shop or on a vessel

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: in which context would you most likely see the specific sequence of names plug, bottom, and taper used together, not separately? • Think about which choice involves tools that create or finish internal threads in metal parts. • Consider where the terms taper and bottom are used to describe how far a tool cuts into a hole and how its cutting edges are shaped.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option is directly related to cutting internal threads rather than measuring or joining pipes. • Check whether drill press parts are typically named plug, bottom, or taper—or if their parts have other common names (e.g., chuck, spindle, table). • Confirm that pipe fittings called plugs or tapers don’t usually come in a named three-part set like plug, bottom, and taper.
