Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-22500-8-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-22500-8-I is a carbon steel hex rethread die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners, pipe fittings, and threaded rod. Sized for 2-1/4 inch diameter with 8 threads per inch (TPI), this die cleans up deformed threads without the need to cut new ones from scratch. The hex body profile allows a standard wrench or die stock to drive the tool with controlled torque. Plumbers, pipefitters, and general maintenance trades reach for rethread dies when field repairs are faster than full replacement of a threaded component.

This die is suited for use in commercial and industrial maintenance environments where large-diameter fasteners and pipe connections are common. Typical applications include restoring threads on structural bolting, heavy pipe unions, and large-diameter threaded rod assemblies. The 2-1/4 inch by 8 TPI specification matches coarse-thread fastener and pipe standards common in mechanical and structural trades. It is imported and priced for shop inventory or job-site use where per-unit cost matters.

Key Features

• 2-1/4 inch diameter by 8 TPI sizing for large coarse-thread restoration
• Carbon steel construction provides the hardness needed to chase damaged threads
• Hex body profile accepts standard wrenches and die stocks for positive drive
• Rethread design cleans and restores existing threads rather than cutting fresh material
• Minimum order quantity of 1 for single-unit procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a rethread die for external threads measuring 2-1/4 inch diameter at 8 TPI, compatible with standard coarse-thread fasteners, threaded rod, and pipe fittings that match this thread specification.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance mechanics performing thread restoration on threaded components. Before use, clean the damaged thread area of debris, rust, and grease. Apply cutting oil to the die and the workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Drive the hex die slowly and back off periodically to clear cuttings and avoid binding on heavily damaged threads.
