Value Collection 315-1353 Round Die 1-1/16-12 2 in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1353 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and fasteners. It produces a 1-1/16-12 UNS right-hand thread profile and measures 2 inches in outside diameter, fitting standard die stocks sized for 2-inch OD round dies. Manufactured from high-speed steel, this die maintains cutting edge hardness under the heat generated during threading operations. An adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit and compensate for minor wear, extending service life. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance tradespeople use this die for fabrication and field repair work on inch-series threaded fasteners and rod ends.

This die is suited for threading mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials in both shop and field settings. The 1-1/16-12 designation indicates a 1-1/16-inch nominal diameter with 12 threads per inch, a coarser pitch commonly found in industrial fasteners and mechanical assemblies. It is appropriate for low-volume production runs and single-unit repair jobs alike, and is packaged as a single die per unit for direct replacement or toolbox stocking.

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard round die stocks accepting a 2-inch OD round die. Suitable for cutting 1-1/16-12 UNS right-hand external threads on machinable metals.

Installation Notes

Threading dies are installed by machinists or skilled tradespeople using a matching die stock or die holder rated for 2-inch OD round dies. Secure the die firmly in the holder and apply cutting fluid to the workpiece before starting the thread. Back off the die periodically to clear chips and prevent binding. Inspect the workpiece diameter before threading to confirm it matches the recommended major diameter for a 1-1/16-12 UNS thread.
