Irwin 9722ZR 5mm X 0.80 Metric Hex Die Carbon Steel

Product Description

The IRWIN INDUSTRIAL TOOL CO 9722ZR is a 5mm x 0.80 metric hexagon die made from carbon steel, designed for hand threading work across a variety of materials. It measures 1 inch across the hex and is suited for routine maintenance and repair applications where high-accuracy tolerance threads are not critical. Rethreading damaged or corroded fasteners is a primary use case. The hex profile allows the die to be driven with a standard wrench or socket, making it practical in confined spaces where a full die stock cannot be used. Tradespeople working on mechanical assemblies, plumbing fixtures, or equipment frames will find this die a reliable tool for restoring metric threads in the field.

This die is intended for hand threading applications in residential and light commercial maintenance settings. It works with standard hexagon die stock for conventional threading operations and can also be used independently with a wrench or socket drive when clearance is limited. It is well suited for HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals who need to rethread 5mm x 0.80 metric fasteners without requiring precision thread tolerance. The die arrives in a package quantity of three units, making it practical to stock for recurring maintenance work.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard hexagon die stock handles and compatible with any wrench or socket sized to a 1 inch hex drive. Intended for hand threading work on 5mm x 0.80 metric fasteners in a variety of materials.

Installation Notes

This die is intended for hand threading use only and should not be run in a powered threading machine. De-energize and lock out any equipment before rethreading fasteners in place. Apply cutting oil to the die and workpiece to reduce friction and extend tool life. Follow standard threading practice by backing off the die periodically to clear chips during the threading pass.
