Designed for the 5-40 UNC thread form, this die produces right-hand threads in a single pass or multiple light passes depending on material hardness. The adjustable design allows machinists and technicians to set cutting tension and make minor pitch diameter corrections, extending die life and improving thread quality across a range of workpiece materials. At 0.06 pounds, it is a compact bench or field tool suited for machine shops, maintenance crews, and trade professionals who cut small-diameter threads regularly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die is used wherever 5-40 UNC external threads must be cut or re-chased on small-diameter rod, bolts, or screw stock. Typical applications include instrument assembly, electrical panel work involving small machine screws, HVAC control wiring hardware, and general maintenance threading tasks. Its compact size fits standard round die stocks designed for the appropriate die outer diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5-40 UNC thread form for common small-fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction resists heat and wear during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable design allows pitch diameter fine-tuning and extended service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.06 pounds — suitable for portable die stocks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or standard round die for use in any die stock or die holder machined to accept this die outer diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRound dies are installed and secured in a matching die stock before use. Ensure the workpiece is held firmly in a vise and apply cutting fluid to reduce heat buildup and improve thread finish. Start the die square to the workpiece to prevent cross-threading. Replace or readjust the die when thread quality degrades or cutting resistance increases noticeably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-40\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\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High-Speed Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\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: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 314-1018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694920794418,"sku":"314-1018","price":27.06,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/87fef62022a3a086d75797323cd3e2ae.jpg?v=1788329669","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-314-1018-round-die-5-40-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
