It cuts a 1\/2-20 UNF right-hand thread profile and fits the Hex-LOK series, which accepts the die in a 1.0000-inch hex holder. The body is machined from carbon steel for durability under repeated use. At 0.06 pounds, the die is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry in a service bag or toolbox. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance technicians use this die to recondition bolt and stud threads on the job without removing the fastener from the assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rethreading die is suited for mechanical, plumbing, and electrical trade applications where fastener threads are stripped, rusted, or otherwise damaged and replacement is not practical. It is used on 1\/2-20 UNF threaded fasteners in residential and light commercial settings. The Hex-LOK series design allows the die to be driven with a standard wrench or driver equipped with the matching hex holder, speeding up rethreading tasks compared to traditional round-stock die stocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2-20 UNF thread profile restores fine-pitch external threads to spec\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction provides strength for rethreading hardened fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1.0000-inch hex body fits Hex-LOK series holders for wrench or driver use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-adjustable design maintains consistent thread geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.50-inch thickness keeps the die compact for tight-access work\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with the MILWAUKEE TOOL Hex-LOK series die stock system accepting a 1.0000-inch hex die body.

Before rethreading, clean the fastener of debris, rust, and old thread compound using a wire brush, and apply cutting oil to reduce heat and extend die life. Drive the die slowly with steady, even pressure, reversing periodically to clear chips. Never force the die past significant resistance, as this can crack the die or further damage the fastener thread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex-LOK\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.0000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\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: 49-57-5362\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MILWAUKEE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51977630712114,"sku":"49-57-5362","price":18.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/384f47f3224ac82e60ad90ad9f9aea0f.jpg?v=1789979640","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/milwaukee-tool-49-57-5362-hex-rethreading-die-1-2-20-unf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
