Value Collection 314-1126 Round Die 8-32 1 Inch Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1126 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on fasteners, studs, and rod stock. It produces a right-hand, 8-32 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread profile in a single pass or with multiple light cuts. Machined from high-speed steel (HSS), the die holds a cutting edge under the heat and friction of threading operations. The adjustable design allows the operator to set cutting tension for thread fit and to extend die life by taking incremental passes. Outside diameter measures 1 inch, fitting standard 1-inch die stocks and holders. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians commonly use this type of die for fabrication and repair work.

This die is suited for threading machine screws, small-diameter bolts, and repair studs in the 8-32 UNC size class. It is used in light manufacturing, maintenance and repair operations (MRO), and field service applications where a portable die stock is in use. The 8-32 thread is a common size in electrical enclosures, HVAC control panels, and general mechanical assemblies, making this die a practical addition to any service technician's threading kit.

Key Features

• 8-32 UNC thread form for cutting standard unified coarse external threads
• High-speed steel construction resists heat buildup during cutting and maintains edge integrity
• Adjustable die body allows fine-tuning of thread fit and supports incremental cutting passes
• Right-hand thread direction matches the standard fastener orientation
• 1-inch outside diameter fits common die stocks and holders designed for 1-inch round dies

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit replacement or standard addition for 1-inch round die stocks and holders that accept 8-32 UNC round dies.

Installation Notes

Secure the die firmly in a properly sized die stock before use. Apply cutting oil to the workpiece to reduce heat and extend die life. Start the die square to the workpiece to avoid cross-threading. Follow applicable shop safety practices when operating hand threading tools.
