About Park Tool Bottom Bracket Tapping & Facing Set (BTS-1)
The BTS-1 is a precision tool system for ensuring threaded bottom bracket shells are properly aligned and faced. The precision-manufactured two-piece tap handle engages through the bottom bracket shell, ensuring both sides are aligned with the shell and each other. The included English-threaded taps precisely verify and repair the alignment of threads in the shell. After tapping, the taps act as guides to keep the included facing cutter perfectly square with the axis of the bottom bracket for cleanup of the faces of the bottom bracket shell.

Features
Includes: 1.370" x 24 TPI right hand tap — English non-drive side (part #691), 1.370" x 24 TPI left hand tap — English drive side (part #692), 45 mm facing cutter (part #690)

Customer Reviews (5.0 / 5 · 3 reviews)

Owen ★★★★★

Finally got my old frame's bottom bracket shell trued up — the facing cutter made quick work of a slightly uneven surface I'd been fighting with for years. The taps cut cleanly through the aluminum without any binding, which was a relief.

Owen ★★★★★

The guide pins kept everything perfectly centered while I faced the shell, no wobble at all. My old frame now has a smooth, square shoulder for the cup to seat against.

Amelia N. ★★★★★

The cutter edges cleared out old threadlocker and paint residue in just a couple of passes, leaving a perfectly flat face on my old steel frame. The alignment pilots fit snugly and made facing both sides dead square — no more creaking from the bottom bracket.
