Eagle Cutting Tool MHD-240-300-I Metric Hex Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MHD-240-300-I is a carbon steel metric hex die designed to cut external M24.0x3.00 threads on round stock, bolts, and threaded rod. The hex-profile body seats securely in a standard die stock or wrench, allowing controlled thread cutting by hand or with a tap and die set. At 0.48 pounds, the die is compact enough for field use while providing the mass needed for clean, consistent thread engagement. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians use this die when fabricating or restoring metric-threaded fasteners in industrial and mechanical applications.

This die is suited for threading mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar materials in shop or field environments. The M24.0x3.00 designation indicates a 24.0 mm nominal diameter with a 3.00 mm thread pitch, conforming to standard metric coarse thread specifications. Typical use cases include fabricating custom studs, repairing damaged threads on large-diameter fasteners, and producing threaded sections on bar stock for mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• M24.0x3.00 metric coarse thread specification for large-diameter external threading
• Hex-profile body fits standard die stocks and adjustable die wrenches for controlled hand cutting
• Carbon steel construction provides adequate hardness for threading mild steel and non-ferrous metals
• Compact form factor at 0.48 pounds supports both bench and field use
• Minimum order quantity of 1 unit allows single-piece procurement

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement or supplemental die for standard metric hex die stocks and adjustable die holders accepting M24.0x3.00 tooling. No specific compatible model numbers were provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using a properly sized die stock or adjustable hex die wrench. Secure the workpiece in a vise before beginning thread cutting, and apply cutting oil to both the die and the workpiece to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Advance the die in short increments, backing off periodically to break chips and prevent binding. Always inspect the die for wear or chipping before use to avoid producing undersized or damaged threads.
