Eagle Cutting Tool CHD-25000-8-I Carbon Hex Rethread Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL CHD-25000-8-I is a carbon hex rethread die sized for 2-1/2 inch diameter fasteners with an 8 threads-per-inch (TPI) pitch. Rethread dies are used to restore damaged or corroded external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod without full replacement. The hex body profile allows a standard wrench or die stock to drive the tool with controlled torque. This die is an import-grade tool suited for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) work where thread restoration is required on large-diameter fasteners.

This rethread die is appropriate for use on 2-1/2 inch coarse-thread fasteners found in heavy mechanical, structural, plumbing, and industrial applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, millwrights, and general maintenance technicians working on large-diameter threaded connections will find this size relevant for field repair of damaged threads on pipe fittings, equipment mounts, and structural hardware.

Key Features

• 2-1/2 inch diameter, 8 TPI coarse thread specification for large fastener repair
• Hex body profile accepts standard wrenches or die stocks for controlled driving
• Carbon steel construction provides hardness suitable for thread chasing and restoration
• Rethread design restores damaged external threads without full fastener replacement
• Import-grade tool appropriate for MRO and general repair applications

Compatibility

Designed for use on 2-1/2 inch, 8 TPI external threads. Compatible with standard hex die stocks sized for this diameter.

Installation Notes

Thread restoration with a rethread die should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with fastener specifications and safe tooling practices. Ensure the fastener or stud is secure and the work area is safe before applying the die. Use cutting oil or thread lubricant to reduce friction and improve thread quality during the chasing operation. Do not force the die over severely deformed threads; excessive material deformation may require fastener replacement rather than restoration.
