Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-15000-6-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-15000-6-I is a carbon hex rethread die sized for 1-1/2 inch diameter, 6 threads per inch, National Coarse (NC) thread form. It is used to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners, pipe fittings, studs, and threaded rod. The hex body style allows a standard tap wrench or die stock with a hex socket to drive the tool without slipping. At 1.96 pounds, it is a solid, bench-ready tool suited for plumbing, mechanical, and general trade work where thread restoration is needed in the field or shop.

This rethread die is appropriate for maintenance and repair work across residential and commercial applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use rethread dies like this to salvage threaded connections on galvanized pipe, bolts, and fittings that have been damaged by corrosion, impact, or cross-threading. The 1-1/2 inch 6NC specification matches standard coarse-thread fasteners and fittings common in heavy mechanical and plumbing assemblies.
