LifeLine Pro BB Facing & Tapping Set is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 8.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Suggy from Outstanding High quality tool that worked perfectly. It was my first time tapping a bottom bracket. Found a video on line, watched it a couple of times. Tested a couple things. Performed the operation, perfectly. Took about 30 minutes in total. My wife's mtn bike is as good as new.

Rated 5 out of 5 by StuffySteev from Quality tool Needed to re-thread a stripped BB on a chums bike, the kit worked perfectly. Make sure that you get the left and right correctly set up. Right is right side of the bike. There s a video on I en which shows how to use it better than th einstruction sheet but the instruction sheet is fine. The face cutter could be a little less coarse but that’s the only real negative, and it’s a very minor one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by spdfrk from Got it at a smokin' price too There are youtube videos that walk through how to use this tool and my first time after watching the video and going at it with the instructions I had no problems!

Rated 4 out of 5 by CharlesL from Well worth buying but needs better instructions This is a great set. It does the job quickly and for a price that can't be beat. I live in an area where no bike shop has the ability to face a bottom bracket shell, so it was going to cost me almost as much as the set to have it done with the travel expenses. Now, if I need to do another one, I'll be saving money. The only reason I give it four stars instead of five is the lack of instructions. It gives a basic guide for how to set it up to chase threads, but nothing whatsoever about facing. Still, there are some good how to YouTube videos to be found for a set that is like this one. So, overall, it's well worth the price.

Are there any Italian taps that fit?

This would be a great value kit IF I could later add Italian taps to it - every other part should in theory be interchangeable. Are there any Italian taps available that would fit these handles from any manufacturer and/or retailer? The spec of the taps in this kit (circumference and key width) would help track some down...
Asked by: SturdyAl
This will only only come with English threaded taps and not Italian I'm afraid.
