Value Collection 314-1783 Round Die M17x1.25 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-1783 is a round threading die designed to cut external M17x1.25 metric special threads on bolts, rods, and threaded fasteners. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this die maintains a sharp cutting edge under the heat and friction generated during threading operations. The adjustable design allows the operator to set cutting depth for roughing or finishing passes. Right-hand thread direction follows standard fastener convention. Machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians use this die in bench-mounted die stocks or hand holders for threading ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces.

This die is suited for shops, field maintenance crews, and production environments that require metric special thread forms outside the common coarse and fine pitch series. The M17x1.25 thread specification is found in automotive, motorcycle, and specialized industrial fastener applications where a fine-pitch 17 mm thread is required. It is used for cutting new threads or restoring damaged threads on existing fasteners and components.

Key Features

• M17x1.25 metric special thread form for non-standard fastener applications
• High-speed steel construction resists heat buildup during cutting
• Adjustable design allows depth-of-cut control for roughing and finishing passes
• Right-hand thread direction compatible with standard fastener orientation
• Round die form fits standard die stocks and hand die holders

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard round die stocks and hand holders sized to accept this die. Compatible with ferrous and non-ferrous workpieces requiring M17x1.25 right-hand external threads.

Installation Notes

Threading dies are installed and used by machinists and maintenance technicians familiar with hand threading tools and bench equipment. Secure the die firmly in the die stock before use and apply cutting oil to the workpiece to improve thread finish and extend tool life. Start the die square to the workpiece axis to avoid cross-threading. Inspect the die for cracks or chipped flutes before each use and replace if damaged.
