Eagle Cutting Tool MHD-080-100-I M8.00x1.00 Metric Hex Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MHD-080-100-I is a carbon steel metric hex die sized for M8.00x1.00 thread specifications. Hex dies are used to cut or rethread external threads on bolts, studs, rods, and fasteners. This die fits standard hex die stocks and wrenches, allowing controlled thread cutting with consistent pitch and depth. At 0.48 pounds, it is compact enough for bench use or field service work. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who work with metric fasteners rely on hex dies like this one to restore damaged threads or cut new ones on raw stock.

This die is suited for applications involving M8 metric threads with a 1.00 mm pitch, a common specification found in automotive, mechanical, and general industrial assembly work. It is appropriate for use in shop environments where metric fasteners are regularly fabricated or repaired. The hex body design allows it to be driven with a standard die stock or an appropriately sized wrench, making it practical for both bench-mounted and handheld operation.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting dies should be installed and operated by machinists or qualified tradespeople familiar with threading procedures. Secure the workpiece firmly before beginning and apply appropriate cutting fluid to reduce heat and extend die life. Advance the die in short increments and back off periodically to clear chips and prevent binding. Inspect the die for wear or damage before each use to ensure thread quality and operator safety.
