Value Collection 315-1024 Round Die 6-36 High Speed Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1024 is a round threading die designed to cut 6-36 external threads in high-speed steel construction. It produces right-hand, UNS-standard threads and features an adjustable design that allows the machinist to fine-tune thread fit and cutting depth without replacing the die. High-speed steel provides the hardness and heat resistance needed for consistent thread cutting across a range of workpiece materials. This die is a standard shop tool used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and tool-and-die tradespeople working with small-diameter fastener threads.

The 315-1024 is suited for threading applications that require a 6-36 thread specification — a fine-thread UNS designation used in precision assembly, instrument work, and small mechanical components. The adjustable construction makes it practical for both production runs and single-piece repair work where thread tolerance must be dialed in to match an existing assembly. It is appropriate for use in manual die stocks as well as bench-mounted threading setups.

Key Features

• 6-36 thread size for fine-pitch, small-diameter external threading
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting
• Right-hand thread direction — standard for the vast majority of fastener applications
• Adjustable design allows thread fit to be fine-tuned without changing tooling
• UNS thread standard for compatibility with unified national screw thread specifications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard shop die for use in round die stocks and threading frames sized to accept dies for the 6-36 thread specification.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed by machinists or skilled maintenance technicians using a compatible die stock or holder. Secure the die firmly in the die stock before use, and apply appropriate cutting fluid to the workpiece to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the workpiece diameter against the specified thread major diameter before cutting to avoid die damage or poor thread form. When using the adjustable feature, make incremental adjustments and test thread fit with a mating fastener or thread gauge.
