Value Collection 314-1022 Round Die 6-32 Unc High Speed Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1022 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on fasteners, rods, and cylindrical stock. Made from high-speed steel, it holds a cutting edge through repeated use and resists heat generated during threading operations. The die cuts a 6-32 UNC right-hand thread profile and features an adjustable design that allows minor diameter correction for fit and finish. It is sized for use in a standard round die stock holder. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworking professionals use this type of die for thread repair and new thread cutting in production and field applications.

This die is suited for cutting 6-32 UNC threads in a range of materials including mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable metals. The 6-32 thread size is commonly found in small fasteners used in electrical enclosures, instrumentation panels, and light mechanical assemblies. The adjustable construction makes it practical for both production threading and one-off repair work where exact thread fit needs to be dialed in on site or at the bench.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during threading
• Cuts 6-32 UNC right-hand external threads
• Adjustable die allows fine-tuning of thread diameter for precise fit
• Round die profile fits standard round die stock holders
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard fastener orientation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard round die for use with compatible round die stock holders that accept the appropriate die diameter. Suitable for threading 6-32 UNC applications in metalworking, maintenance, and light manufacturing environments.

Installation Notes

Thread cutting with a round die should be performed by a qualified machinist or trained technician familiar with proper die stock handling and cutting fluid use. Secure the workpiece firmly before threading to prevent movement. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to extend die life and improve thread quality. Inspect the die for wear or chipping before each use and replace if the cutting edges are damaged.
