Value Collection 315-1155 Round Die 7/16-28 1 Inch Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1155 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on round stock, bolts, and fasteners. Sized for a 7/16-28 thread form and machined to a 1-inch outside diameter, this die fits standard 1-inch die stocks and holders. It is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), which retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures and holds an edge longer than carbon steel alternatives. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit and compensate for minor wear. Right-hand thread direction conforms to standard UNEF specifications. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance mechanics are the primary users of this type of tooling.

This die is suited for threading applications requiring a 7/16-28 UNEF thread form, which is a fine-pitch unified external thread commonly found in precision fastener work, instrument components, and specialty mechanical assemblies. It is appropriate for both production and maintenance environments where accurate thread cutting on small-diameter stock is required. The 1-inch OD makes it compatible with standard round die holders designed for that size. The adjustable feature is particularly useful when threading softer materials where a slightly looser or tighter fit is needed.

Key Features

• 7/16-28 UNEF thread size for fine-pitch external thread cutting
• 1-inch outside diameter fits standard round die stocks and holders
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting
• Adjustable design allows thread fit fine-tuning
• Right-hand thread direction per UNEF standard

Compatibility

Designed as a standard round die for use in 1-inch OD round die holders and die stocks suitable for 7/16-28 UNEF right-hand thread applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and secured in a compatible round die stock or holder before use. Ensure the die is seated squarely in the holder and that the set screws are properly engaged before beginning any threading operation. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to the workpiece to extend die life and improve thread finish. Follow standard shop safety practices, including securing the workpiece firmly before applying rotational force.
