Value Collection 315-1327 Round Die 7/8-32 2 Inch Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1327 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and cylindrical workpieces. This die cuts a 7/8-32 UNS thread profile with a right-hand thread direction. The outside diameter measures 2 inches, making it compatible with standard die stocks and holders of that size. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), it maintains cutting edge integrity across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The adjustable design allows the operator to dial in thread fit by slightly opening or closing the die body using the set screw provisions on the die stock.

This die is used in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and field service environments where custom-length threaded fasteners or replacement threaded shafts need to be produced or restored. The 7/8-32 thread specification is a fine-pitch UNS designation, commonly encountered in precision mechanical assemblies. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians install this die into a matching 2-inch die stock to perform hand or machine threading operations on bar stock or existing fasteners.

Key Features

• 7/8-32 UNS thread form, fine-pitch right-hand cut
• 2-inch outside diameter fits standard 2-inch die stocks and holders
• High-speed steel construction for extended cutting life across multiple materials
• Adjustable split-body design allows thread fit fine-tuning
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in any standard 2-inch round die stock or holder. Suitable for cutting 7/8-32 UNS right-hand external threads on compatible diameter workpieces.

Installation Notes

This die is installed by a machinist or maintenance technician into a matching 2-inch die stock secured with set screws. Ensure the workpiece is properly chamfered at the lead end before threading to allow the die to start cleanly and reduce the risk of cross-threading. Apply appropriate cutting fluid for the workpiece material throughout the threading operation. Inspect the die for chipping or wear before each use; a damaged die will produce out-of-tolerance threads.
