Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-16250-8-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-16250-8-I is a carbon hex rethread die designed to restore damaged or degraded external threads on fasteners, pipe, and threaded rod. Built in a hex body profile for use with standard die stocks or a wrench, this die cuts 1-5/8 inch diameter threads at 8 threads per inch (TPI). It is a practical bench and field tool for plumbers, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance trades who need to clean or recut threads without full thread replacement. At 1.96 pounds, it is a solid, durable tool sized for heavy-duty fastener work.

This die is suited for rethread and cleanup operations on large-diameter fasteners, threaded rod, and pipe fittings in industrial, mechanical, and plumbing applications. The hex body allows direct wrench engagement when a die stock is not available, making it useful in tight or confined workspaces. It is appropriate for shops, service vans, and job-site toolkits where restoring coarse unified threads on large fasteners is a routine task.

Installation Notes

Rethread dies should be installed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with thread cutting tools and proper die stock operation. Ensure the workpiece is secured before engaging the die, and apply appropriate cutting oil to extend die life and improve thread quality. Start the die squarely on the thread axis to avoid cross-threading. Inspect threads after recutting to confirm engagement before reassembly.
