Value Collection 314-1490 Round Die 1-3/8-12 Unf Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1490 is a round threading die designed to cut 1-3/8-12 UNF external threads on bolts, studs, and round stock. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), it delivers the hardness and heat resistance needed for production threading and repair work on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune the die for a tighter or looser thread fit, extending tool life and improving thread quality. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it fits standard round die stocks sized for 1-3/8-inch outside diameter dies. Right-hand thread direction matches the most common fastener standard.

This die is suited for machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and industrial fabrication environments where custom-length threaded fasteners or field thread repair is required. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians use this die when re-chasing damaged threads or threading raw stock to a 1-3/8-12 UNF specification. It is appropriate for both manual die stock use and compatible bench setups.

Key Features

• 1-3/8-12 UNF thread size for fine-pitch external thread cutting
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during threading operations
• Adjustable design allows thread fit fine-tuning for tighter or looser tolerance
• Right-hand thread direction — compatible with standard fastener orientation
• Compact 0.5-pound weight for easy handling in die stock

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard round die stocks accommodating a 1-3/8-inch outside diameter round die. Suitable for threading operations on 1-3/8-12 UNF fastener applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and used by machinists or maintenance technicians. Secure the die firmly in an appropriate round die stock before use, ensuring the set screws are tightened properly. Apply a suitable cutting oil to the workpiece before threading to reduce friction and heat buildup. Inspect the die and workpiece for damage before each use to avoid cross-threading or premature tool wear.
