Made from high-speed steel (HSS), it handles the heat and friction generated during thread cutting without losing its edge quickly. This die cuts a 3\/8-16 Unified National Coarse (UNC) thread in a right-hand direction and features an adjustable design that allows minor diameter tuning for fit and finish. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and plumbers use dies like this for fabricating or restoring threaded fasteners in the field or at the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die is suited for cutting 3\/8-16 UNC external threads on steel, aluminum, and similar materials in both shop and field applications. The adjustable feature makes it practical for threading rod stock to a precise fit or for chasing damaged threads on existing hardware. It is a single-piece die intended for use with a standard round die stock holder of the appropriate size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8-16 UNC thread specification for common fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjustable design allows minor diameter adjustment for precise thread fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction, the standard for most fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 0.2 pounds for bench or portable use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard round die stock holders sized to accept this die.

Secure the workpiece firmly before threading and apply cutting oil to extend die life and improve thread quality. Start the die squarely on the workpiece to avoid cross-threading. Inspect the die for wear or chipping before each use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC (Unified National Coarse)\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: 0.2 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: 314-1248\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51714459042098,"sku":"314-1248","price":47.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/6ceac3de7c8f83d8accec119b0d7ac2a.jpg?v=1788501752","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-314-1248-round-die-3-8-16-unc-hss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
