m11 x 1.25 thread chaser : is ARP the SOLE manufacturer?

I need a thread chaser m11 x 1.25 (for engine block to head bolt holes, 2RZ-FE engine) and seems like I've spent forever looking for one..that I can afford...that being said.....
yes, they are available. At minimum cost over $52/ea, made by ARP. And ONLY ARP. The Snap-On guy asked me if I was sure I knew the correct size...because Snap-On doesn't have that size available, nor does Mac (not that I wanted to pay their price for same, but for sake of comparison I had to check). I also checked sets from Craftsman and several others. Nope.
I do NOT need a tap, I need a thread cleaning chaser.
Does anyone know of a manufacturer/source other than ARP? (ARP'd be fine at a 50% discount.....)

 

Can you not make one from a old Head bolt??

Old ball size sometimes you gotta pay to play

 

yes, I can 'make one' - or two...just have a preference for 'store-bought' in this kind of situation. Thank you for the reply.

 

I have always made them out of bolts

But sounds like your doing motor work better get the right stuff

 

I know you said you don't need a tap, so I say this cautiously, but what about chasing the threads with a roll tap? Might have more options for purchasing the tool? Roll taps seem more inline with a thread chaser's function.

 

@Jon G yes, you are correct, I am in the midst of some engine work And that is the reason I'm looking for 'the right stuff'

@Lostsheep: I'm not familiar with the term 'roll tap'. Can you elucidate?
Thank you!

 

A roll tap doesn’t cut threads, it deforms material which is the same basic thing that a thread chaser does. That being said , I have very little experience with thread chasers so I can’t be more specific about other differences between the two.
