Eagle Cutting Tool MHD-120-175-I Metric Hex Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MHD-120-175-I is a carbon steel metric hex die sized for M12.0 x 1.75 thread cutting. Hex dies are held in a standard die stock or adjustable holder and used to cut or rethread external threads on bolts, studs, and round stock. This die produces a 1.75 mm pitch thread on 12 mm diameter work material. It is a practical choice for maintenance shops, pipe and mechanical contractors, and field service technicians who need to cut metric threads without a lathe. The hex body seats securely in a matching hex holder for controlled torque during cutting.

This die is suited for general-purpose thread cutting in steel, aluminum, and other common metals encountered in mechanical and industrial maintenance work. Typical applications include cutting new threads on replacement fasteners, cleaning up damaged metric threads on machinery, and fabricating threaded rod sections in the field or shop. The M12.0 x 1.75 size is one of the most common coarse-pitch metric thread specifications used in automotive, HVAC equipment fasteners, and general industrial assemblies.

Key Features

• M12.0 x 1.75 thread specification for coarse-pitch metric thread cutting
• Hex die body designed for use with standard hex die stocks and adjustable holders
• Carbon steel construction suitable for cutting threads in mild steel and non-ferrous metals
• Compact size at 0.48 pounds for easy transport in a tool bag or service kit

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or supplemental die for standard hex die stocks and adjustable die holders sized to accept M12.0 x 1.75 metric hex dies.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting dies are installed and used by machinists, maintenance mechanics, and trade professionals. Secure the die firmly in a properly sized hex die stock before use. Apply cutting oil to the work material and die to reduce friction and extend die life. Do not force the die; back off periodically to clear chips and prevent binding or die damage.
