Armite Tapping head anyone else have one ?

[hammernanvil]

I bought a small tapping head with a miniature Jacobs drill chuck on it in
near new condition at the auction thursday. The paperwork is still with it and the only dates I saw on the literature are from 1968-69, It says Armite Labs Tap-Tool right on it. It seems they've been in business since 1928 I think it said. I believe they mainly make lubricants now, I sent them a message to see what they say about the tapping head.

Just adding a picture.

It looks like a really nice tool. I haven't seen one of those before.

You're probably not likely to see many more. I sent the company an email friday, I'm hoping they respond monday. It looks like they mostly make lubricants now so I doubt they still make these. There may not be anyone left at the company that's even seen one themselves. Mine is dated 1968-69
