Value Collection 314-4708 Round Die M10x1.5 Hss Left Hand

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 314-4708 is a round threading die designed to cut M10x1.5 metric coarse left-hand external threads. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this die is built to handle the heat and wear generated during thread cutting on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit and compensate for tool wear over time. At 1/2 inch thick, the die fits standard round die stocks and holders sized for this diameter. It is suited for job shop, maintenance, and production threading applications where left-hand thread specification is required.

Left-hand thread dies see use in applications where counter-rotation or vibration would loosen a standard right-hand fastener, such as certain bicycle components, turnbuckles, and left-side wheel studs on some vehicles. This die is appropriate for machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians cutting M10x1.5 LH threads by hand or with a die stock in a drill press setup. It produces a metric coarse thread profile conforming to standard M10x1.5 geometry. One die is included per package.

Key Features

• M10x1.5 metric coarse thread profile for standard M10 left-hand fastener applications
• High-speed steel construction provides heat resistance and extended cutting life
• Left-hand thread direction for counter-rotation and specialized fastener requirements
• Adjustable design allows thread fit fine-tuning and compensation for die wear
• 1/2 inch thickness fits standard round die stocks designed for this die diameter

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard round die stocks and holders sized to accept this die diameter. Verify die stock internal diameter before use to confirm proper fit.

Installation Notes

Threading dies are installed and used by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians. Secure the die firmly in a properly sized die stock before use and apply a suitable cutting fluid to reduce friction and extend die life. Ensure the workpiece is cleanly chamfered at the end to allow the die to start squarely. Inspect the die for chips or cracks before each use and do not force a damaged die onto a workpiece.
