Value Collection 314-1136 Round Die 12-28 Unf 1 in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1136 is a 1-inch outside diameter round threading die designed to cut 12-28 UNF right-hand external threads. Manufactured from high-speed steel, this die delivers the hardness and heat resistance needed to thread steel, brass, and similar materials in production and repair work. The adjustable design allows the cutting diameter to be fine-tuned for fit and finish, giving machinists and tradespeople control over thread tolerance. At 0.06 pounds, it is compact and compatible with standard 1-inch round die stocks. It is suited for bench work, field repair, and light production threading on No. 12 fastener applications.

This die is appropriate for threading 12-28 UNF fastener stock in mechanical, electrical, and general trade applications where a fine-pitch No. 12 thread is required. Common uses include fabricating or restoring threads on machine screws, instrument hardware, and small-diameter fasteners. It is typically used in shop environments by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tradespeople performing thread repair or custom fabrication. The 1-inch OD fits standard round die stocks designed for that size.
