Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-22500-12-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-22500-12-I is a carbon hex rethread die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners, pipe fittings, and threaded rod. Built in a standard hex profile for use with a die stock or adjustable wrench, this die cuts a 2-1/4 inch diameter thread at 12 threads per inch (TPI). It is a practical tool for plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics working on heavy-fastener applications where thread restoration is required rather than full replacement of the threaded component.

This rethread die is suited for field and shop use wherever large-diameter coarse threads need cleaning or restoration. Typical applications include restoring threads on heavy bolts, large pipe fittings, and structural fasteners in industrial, mechanical, and plumbing environments. The hex body allows for easy drive with standard hand tools, making it accessible for both bench and on-site work.

Key Features

• 2-1/4 inch diameter with 12 TPI thread specification for large-diameter fastener restoration
• Hex body profile accepts standard die stocks and adjustable wrenches
• Carbon steel construction provides adequate hardness for thread chasing and restoration on steel and iron fasteners
• Rethread design cleans and restores existing threads without full re-cutting in most applications
• Minimum order quantity of 1 — available as a single unit

Compatibility

Designed for use on external threads measuring 2-1/4 inches in diameter at 12 TPI. Compatible with standard die stocks sized for hex rethread dies of this diameter. Verify die stock clearance and thread specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Thread restoration dies are typically used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical technicians. Before use, clean the fastener or fitting of debris, rust, and old thread sealant to allow the die to seat properly. Apply cutting oil to the die and workpiece to reduce friction and extend tool life. Always verify that the thread pitch and diameter of the die match the fastener specification before use — mismatched dies can further damage threads.
