Value Collection 315-1154 Round Die 7/16-27 1 in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1154 is a round threading die used to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and cylindrical workpieces. It is manufactured from high-speed steel for durability and heat resistance during cutting operations. This die cuts a 7/16-27 right-hand thread to the UNS thread standard, with a 1-inch outside diameter that fits standard round die stocks and holders. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit by slightly compressing or expanding the die through the set screw in the die stock. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians install and use this die in both shop and field applications.

This die is suited for threading operations on small-diameter fasteners, fittings, and precision components where a 7/16-27 UNS thread form is required. The 7/16-27 pitch is commonly found in specialized instrument, optical, and light mechanical assemblies. The 1-inch OD is a standard size that indexes into a wide range of commercially available round die stocks. It is appropriate for both production threading and one-off repair work in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments.

Key Features

• 7/16-27 thread size to UNS thread standard for precise, specification-correct thread cutting
• High-speed steel construction provides hardness and resistance to heat generated during threading
• Adjustable design allows thread fit fine-tuning through the die stock set screw
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener and fitting applications
• 1-inch outside diameter fits standard round die stocks and holders

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1-inch OD round die for use in compatible round die stocks and holders that accept 1-inch OD dies. Intended for cutting 7/16-27 UNS right-hand external threads.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed by a machinist or qualified technician into a matching round die stock, secured with the set screw before use. The workpiece should be secured in a vise or fixture to prevent movement during threading. Apply cutting oil to the workpiece and die throughout the threading operation to reduce heat buildup and extend die life. Inspect the die for chipping or wear before each use, and do not force the die if it stalls, as this can cause breakage.
