Century Drill Tool Co Inc 98511 Adjustable Die Stock 1 in

Product Description

The Century Drill Tool Co Inc 98511 is a 1-inch adjustable die stock designed for hand threading operations. It features a self-centering guide that keeps the die aligned during threading, reducing the chance of cross-threading or angled cuts. The adjustable wrench body accommodates both hex dies and round dies, secured in place with a set screw for a firm hold. Built with a heavy-duty construction, this tool is suited for repetitive threading tasks on rod, pipe, and fastener stock. It ships as a package of two units.

This die stock is appropriate for plumbers, pipefitters, electricians, and general maintenance technicians who need to cut external threads in the field or shop. The 1-inch capacity makes it compatible with common die sizes used on threaded rod and pipe work. The self-centering guide is especially useful when threading in tight or awkward positions where keeping the die square to the work is difficult by feel alone.

Installation Notes

A licensed plumber, pipefitter, or electrician typically uses this tool for field threading of rod or pipe stock. Before threading, secure the workpiece firmly in a vise to prevent movement. Confirm the die is fully seated and the set screw is tightened before applying rotational force. Apply cutting oil to the die and workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life.
