Value Collection 315-1545 Round Threading Die 1-1/4-20 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1545 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on bolts, studs, rods, and pipe fittings. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), it produces 1-1/4-20 UNS right-hand threads. The adjustable design allows the technician to dial in thread fit, making it useful for both new thread cutting and chasing damaged threads. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians working with 1-1/4-inch diameter fasteners or threaded rod will find this die a standard tool for the job. The HSS construction holds a cutting edge through repeated use and resists heat buildup during cutting operations.

This die is suited for threading 1-1/4-inch diameter rod, bolt stock, or studs in general manufacturing, maintenance, and repair applications. The 20 threads-per-inch pitch falls in a medium-coarse range commonly used in industrial fastener and mechanical assembly work. The UNS thread standard designation indicates a unified national special thread form. The adjustable feature makes this die compatible with a range of die stocks that accept standard round dies. It is appropriate for bench work and field repair alike.

Key Features

• Cuts 1-1/4-20 UNS external right-hand threads
• High-speed steel construction for extended cutting life and heat resistance
• Adjustable design allows fine-tuning of thread fit and diameter tolerance
• Right-hand thread direction matches the most common fastener orientation
• Compatible with standard round die stocks sized for this die diameter

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard round die stocks that accept round dies for cutting 1-1/4-20 UNS right-hand external threads on rod or bolt stock.

Installation Notes

Threading dies are installed and used by machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians. Secure the workpiece firmly in a vise before threading. Apply cutting oil to the die and workpiece to reduce friction and extend tool life. Advance the die in short increments and back off periodically to break chips and prevent thread damage.
