Sized for 6-32 UNC thread, this die cuts right-hand threads using a standard 1-inch hex body, allowing use with a common wrench or rethreading die set handle. Constructed from carbon steel, it provides the hardness needed to chase and re-form threads on softer base metals commonly encountered in HVAC brackets, electrical enclosures, and plumbing fixtures. This is a single-piece die suited for field repair or shop maintenance work by licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rethreading die is used when existing 6-32 UNC machine screw threads on equipment housings, panels, or fasteners have been stripped, cross-threaded, or corroded to the point where fasteners no longer seat correctly. Common applications include restoring threads on control panel screws, equipment cover bolts, and small machine screw fittings found in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, electrical boxes, and plumbing access panels. It is suited for both field service calls and bench repair environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-32 UNC thread size for common machine screw applications in trade equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch hex body fits standard wrenches and rethreading die handles for easy field use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction provides sufficient hardness for chasing threads on aluminum, mild steel, and similar base metals\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact single-piece design suited for tool pouches and service kits\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use on any external 6-32 UNC right-hand threaded fastener or threaded component requiring thread restoration.

Before chasing threads on equipment, de-energize electrical systems and isolate any pressurized lines per applicable NEC or IFGC guidelines. Apply a thread cutting or lubricating oil to the die before use to reduce friction and improve thread quality. Do not use rethreading dies to cut new threads into unthreaded stock — they are intended for restoring existing thread profiles only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-32\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.096 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.67 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: IRWIN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9318\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"IRWIN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540677296434,"sku":"9318","price":16.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/7aa0f80d35deea6b98080c5cf681dfdf.jpg?v=1785861661","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/irwin-9318-hex-rethreading-die-6-32-unc-right-hand","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
