Value Collection 314-4272 Round Die 3/4-10 Hss Left Hand

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-4272 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, pipe, and bolt stock. It is machined from high-speed steel (HSS), which provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for sustained threading operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. This die cuts a 3/4-10 left-hand thread profile to the UNC (Unified National Coarse) standard. The adjustable design allows the operator to control thread depth and compensate for die wear over time. Machinists, maintenance mechanics, and industrial tradespeople are the primary users of this type of tooling.

This die is suited for threading operations in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and industrial production environments where left-hand thread fasteners are required. Left-hand UNC threads are commonly specified in applications where standard right-hand threads would loosen under rotational load, such as certain rotating assemblies, turnbuckles, and specialty mechanical connections. The 3/4-10 thread size is a standard coarse-pitch designation suitable for medium to heavy fastener work.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for durability and resistance to heat buildup during threading
• Cuts 3/4-10 left-hand external threads to UNC standard
• Adjustable die body allows thread depth control and compensation for wear
• Round die format fits standard round die stocks and holders
• Left-hand thread direction for applications requiring reverse-thread fasteners

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling addition compatible with round die stocks and holders sized for the die body diameter. Verify the die stock inner diameter matches this die before use.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed and operated by machinists and maintenance mechanics using a matching die stock or holder. Secure the die in the holder using the set screws before beginning a threading pass. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to the workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Inspect the die for cracks or chipped cutting edges before each use and replace if damaged.
