Built with a metal construction, this die head cuts National Pipe Taper threads and features an automatic opening mechanism that retracts the dies at the end of the thread cut, speeding up repetitive threading work and reducing operator fatigue. It is sized for 2-inch pipe and is intended for professional-grade, production-level threading on jobsites and in shops where consistency and durability are essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die head is used in commercial and industrial plumbing, mechanical piping, and fire suppression installations where 2-inch threaded pipe connections are required. The automatic opening feature makes it well suited for high-volume threading tasks where the operator threads multiple sections of pipe in sequence. Licensed plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors are the primary installers. It is compatible with threading machines that accept this die head configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts 2-inch NPT threads for standard tapered pipe connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAutomatic opening mechanism retracts dies at end of cut, improving workflow efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMetal construction for durability in heavy-use threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDesigned for professional pipe threading machines used in plumbing and pipefitting trades\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProduces consistent, code-compliant NPT thread profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style die head for professional pipe threading machines that accept 2-inch die head assemblies with automatic opening.

Ensure the threading machine is fully powered off and unplugged before mounting or removing the die head. Apply appropriate threading oil during the cutting operation to protect the dies and produce clean threads. Verify that the completed thread meets applicable code requirements, such as those referenced in the International Plumbing Code, before making up the connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePipe Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOpening Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14.4 pounds\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: MILWAUKEE TOOL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 49-16-5100\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MILWAUKEE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691832213810,"sku":"49-16-5100","price":1087.77,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/c340a725964f8a841e9db5a3aee1dd45.jpg?v=1788290266","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/milwaukee-tool-49-16-5100-pipe-threader-die-head-2in-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
