Eagle Cutting Tool MHD-360-300-I Metric Hex Die

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL MHD-360-300-I is a carbon steel metric hex die designed for cutting external M36.0x3.00 threads. The hex body profile allows standard die stocks and wrenches to drive the die precisely and with consistent torque. This tool handles thread-cutting operations on large-diameter metric fasteners, threaded rod, and round stock at 36 mm nominal diameter with a 3.00 mm pitch. It is used in industrial, mechanical, and structural fabrication settings where metric threading is required. Machinists, pipefitters, millwrights, and maintenance professionals typically keep this size on hand for heavy-duty threading work on large fasteners and components.

This die is suited for applications involving large metric threaded assemblies in industrial maintenance, structural fabrication, and heavy equipment repair. The M36.0x3.00 specification places it in the heavy-end range of metric threading tooling, making it appropriate for threading large-diameter bolts, shafts, and studs where precision thread form and clean cutting are critical to joint integrity.

Key Features

• M36.0x3.00 metric thread specification for large-diameter external threading
• Hex body profile accepts standard die stocks and open-end wrenches for positive drive
• Carbon steel construction for thread-cutting on compatible workpiece materials
• Import grade tooling suitable for maintenance, repair, and fabrication use

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard hex die stocks sized to accept a large-diameter metric hex die body. Cuts M36.0x3.00 external threads on round stock and fasteners of compatible material hardness.

Installation Notes

Thread-cutting with a hex die is typically performed by machinists or skilled tradespeople using a properly sized die stock or wrench. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the starting end is chamfered to ease thread engagement before applying the die. Use an appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material to reduce friction and extend die life. Inspect the die for wear or damage before each use and replace if cutting edges show signs of chipping or dullness.
