Value Collection 314-1492 Round Die 1-1/2 6 Unc Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1492 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and round bar stock. It produces a 1-1/2-6 UNC right-hand thread profile and is machined from high-speed steel for durability under the heat and pressure generated during thread cutting. An adjustable set screw allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit and compensate for minor wear. This die is a standard shop tool used by machinists, pipefitters, maintenance technicians, and metal fabricators working with larger-diameter fastener stock.

This die is suited for production and repair threading of 1-1/2-inch diameter stock to a 6 threads-per-inch UNC pitch. Typical applications include fabricating custom fasteners, rethreading damaged bolts, and creating threaded ends on structural rod or mechanical assemblies. The right-hand thread direction matches the standard fastener convention used in the vast majority of industrial and mechanical installations.

Key Features

• 1-1/2-6 UNC thread form for large-diameter external threading work
• High-speed steel construction resists heat buildup during cutting
• Adjustable design allows thread fit fine-tuning via set screw
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener convention
• Round die profile fits standard die stocks and holders

Compatibility

Designed as a standard round die for use with die stocks and holders sized to accept round dies cutting 1-1/2-6 UNC external threads.

Installation Notes

Secure the die firmly in a properly sized die stock before use. Apply cutting oil generously to the workpiece and die throughout the threading operation to reduce heat and extend die life. Back off the die periodically to clear chips and prevent binding. Inspect the workpiece diameter against the nominal thread specification before starting to ensure proper thread engagement and fit.
