Secure the die properly in a die stock or drive it with a correctly sized wrench before applying cutting pressure. Use appropriate cutting oil to reduce friction and extend die life. Never exceed the die's rated thread size or force the die through oversized stock, as this can cause thread damage or premature wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: National Coarse (NC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAcross the Flats\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hand cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.14 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CENTURY DRILL TOOL CO INC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 96106\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CENTURY DRILL \u0026 TOOL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51561162047794,"sku":"96106","price":16.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7e4af4d94be62d93a72c52169b95407c_2517701d-54ea-4157-8797-aa5997fa4b8f.jpg?v=1786462869","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/century-drill-tool-co-inc-96106-12-24-nc-hex-die","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
