Eagle Cutting Tool NHD-15000-115-I Npt Pipe Hex Die 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The EAGLE CUTTING TOOL NHD-15000-115-I is a carbon steel hex pipe die designed to cut National Pipe Taper (NPT) threads on pipe stock. It produces a 1-1/2 inch nominal thread at 11-1/2 threads per inch (TPI), matching the NPT standard for tapered pipe connections. The imperial (inch) thread form ensures compatibility with standard NPT fittings and pipe systems. This die is used by plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors who need to thread pipe in the field or in a shop setting.

This die is suited for threading carbon steel pipe in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and general mechanical piping systems. The 1-1/2 inch NPT size is a commonly specified pipe thread for medium-diameter supply lines, distribution headers, and process piping. The hex body design seats securely in a standard pipe die stock for controlled, repeatable threading cuts.

Key Features

• 1-1/2 inch nominal NPT thread size at 11-1/2 TPI per ANSI/ASME B1.20.1 standard
• Carbon steel construction for cutting threads on steel and iron pipe
• Hex body profile seats in standard pipe die stocks for positive engagement
• Imperial thread form for use with standard NPT fittings and valves
• Single-unit minimum order quantity for jobsite or shop restocking

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard hex pipe die stocks that accept 1-1/2 inch NPT dies. Cuts NPT threads on carbon steel and iron pipe stock in imperial sizing.

Installation Notes

Threading operations should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pipefitter following applicable plumbing and mechanical codes such as the IPC and IFGC. Secure the pipe in a pipe vise before threading and apply cutting oil throughout the threading process to extend die life and produce clean thread form. Inspect the finished thread with a go/no-go gauge or test fitting before assembly. Replace the die if thread form shows wear, chipping, or incomplete engagement.
