Manufactured from carbon steel, this die produces right-hand National Pipe Taper threads to the NPT standard, making it suitable for threaded pipe connections in plumbing, HVAC piping, and conduit work. The hex body measures 1 inch across flats and 3\/8 inch in thickness, fitting standard die stocks and ratchet threaders that accept hex dies of that size. Plumbers, pipefitters, and electricians use this die when field-cutting and threading small-diameter pipe or conduit to NPT specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die is intended for threading 1\/8-inch nominal pipe to the NPT standard, which is common in low-pressure gas lines, instrumentation connections, small water supply branches, and electrical conduit fittings. The right-hand thread direction is the standard orientation for the vast majority of pipe assembly work. The compact hex geometry allows it to seat securely in ratchet die stocks designed for 1-inch hex dies, supporting consistent thread engagement and accurate taper production in the field or shop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts 1\/8-27 NPT right-hand taper threads to national pipe thread standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction for durability in repeated threading operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-inch hex body fits standard ratchet die stocks accepting 1-inch hex dies\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch thickness provides stable seating in the die stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold as a single replacement die for targeted restocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement hex pipe conduit die for use in ratchet die stocks and hand threading tools that accept 1-inch hex dies cutting 1\/8-27 NPT threads.

Always depressurize, de-energize, or isolate the pipe or conduit before threading operations. Apply cutting oil generously during the threading process to extend die life and produce clean thread form. Work follows applicable codes such as IFGC for gas piping or NEC for conduit, depending on the application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/8-27\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\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\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27112805\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: 49-57-5389\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MILWAUKEE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51723877187890,"sku":"49-57-5389","price":15.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f915efd59b2d333f250c19a030aaf664.jpg?v=1788609191","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/milwaukee-tool-49-57-5389-hex-pipe-die-1-8-27-npt","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
