Value Collection 315-1341 Round Threading Die 1-16 2in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1341 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and cylindrical workpieces. It cuts a 1-16 thread form with a 2-inch outside diameter body that seats in standard 2-inch die stocks and threading handles. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), it maintains cutting-edge hardness under the heat generated by manual or machine threading operations. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune the die opening for first-pass roughing cuts or final-size finishing passes. This die is appropriate for use in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and field repair work by machinists, pipefitters, and general tradespeople.

This die is suited for threading applications where a 1-16 thread pitch is required on inch-series fasteners or threaded rod. The 2-inch OD fits compatible die stocks designed for that body size. The right-hand thread direction is the standard cut for conventional fastener applications. Its adjustable feature makes it practical for both new thread cutting and chasing damaged or corroded threads during repair work in industrial and maintenance settings.

Key Features

• 1-16 inch thread size for cutting standard coarse-pitch external threads
• 2-inch outside diameter fits standard 2-inch die stocks and holders
• High-speed steel construction retains hardness and edge life under cutting heat
• Adjustable die opening allows roughing and finishing passes in a single tool
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener and threaded-rod conventions

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 2-inch round die stocks and threading handles that accept a 2-inch OD round die body. Suitable for cutting 1-16 right-hand external threads on inch-series workpieces.

Installation Notes

Secure the workpiece firmly in a vise before threading to prevent movement during cutting. Seat the die squarely against the workpiece end to start the thread straight and avoid cross-threading. Apply cutting oil generously throughout the threading operation to reduce heat buildup and extend die life. Inspect the die for cracks or chipped cutting edges before each use and replace if damage is present.
