Value Collection 314-1640 Round Die M7x1 1 in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1640 is a round threading die designed to cut external metric coarse threads on fasteners, studs, and cylindrical workpieces. Built from high-speed steel (HSS), it delivers the hardness and heat resistance needed for production threading and repair work. The die cuts an M7x1 thread profile with a 1-inch outside diameter, fitting standard 1-inch round die stocks and holders. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit by slightly expanding or compressing the die for tight or loose tolerance threading. Right-hand thread direction matches the standard fastener convention used across most mechanical and structural applications.

This die is suited for machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments where metric fastener threads need to be cut or restored. It works on mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians reach for this die when threading new rod stock, cleaning up damaged threads, or producing small-run metric fasteners without access to a dedicated thread mill. The compact 1-inch OD fits most bench-style die stocks commonly found in trade and shop settings.

Key Features

• 1-inch outside diameter fits standard round die stocks and holders
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during threading operations
• Adjustable split design allows fine-tuning of thread fit and tolerance
• Right-hand thread direction matches conventional fastener standards
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds for easy handling and tool storage

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1-inch round die stocks and holders that accept adjustable round dies. Cuts M7x1 metric coarse external threads on compatible workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed and operated by qualified machinists or toolmakers using a matching die stock. Secure the die firmly in the stock before beginning any threading operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to the workpiece to reduce heat and improve thread finish. Inspect the die for chips or wear before each use, as a damaged cutting edge will produce out-of-tolerance threads.
