Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-25000-12-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-25000-12-I is a carbon hex rethread die sized for 2.5-inch diameter threads at 12 threads per inch (TPI). Hex rethread dies are used to restore damaged, corroded, or deformed external threads on bolts, rods, pipe fittings, and threaded fasteners without requiring full thread cutting. The hexagonal body allows standard wrench engagement for controlled torque during use. This die is an import-grade tool suited for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) use in mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and industrial trade environments.

This rethread die is appropriate for field and shop use where 2.5-inch, 12 TPI external threads need to be chased or restored. Typical applications include heavy fastener repair, large-diameter bolt restoration, and pipe fitting thread cleanup in commercial mechanical or industrial settings. The 12 TPI pitch is a coarse designation common in structural and heavy mechanical fastener applications. Technicians in plumbing, pipefitting, millwright, and general mechanical trades will find this die applicable to large-diameter thread restoration tasks.

Key Features

• 2.5-inch diameter, 12 TPI specification for large-diameter external thread restoration
• Hex body design allows engagement with standard open-end or adjustable wrenches
• Carbon steel construction suitable for MRO and repair applications
• Restores damaged or corroded threads without full re-cutting
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and field-use rethread die for external threads measuring 2.5 inches in diameter at 12 TPI pitch, consistent with standard unified or machine screw thread specifications in that size range.

Installation Notes

Thread restoration with a hex rethread die should be performed by a qualified mechanic, pipefitter, or maintenance technician. Always de-energize, depressurize, or shut off any system before working on threaded components under load or pressure. Apply cutting oil or thread lubricant to the die and the workpiece to reduce friction and improve thread quality. Inspect restored threads with a thread gauge before returning fasteners or fittings to service.
