Value Collection 315-1565 Round Die 1-3/8-24 High Speed Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1565 is a round threading die sized for 1-3/8-24 thread form, manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for sustained cutting performance on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The die cuts right-hand external threads and features an adjustable design, allowing the operator to fine-tune thread fit and compensate for wear over time. Weighing 0.5 pounds, it is suited for bench use with a standard die stock or threading handle. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians rely on round dies like this one for chasing damaged threads or cutting new external threads on rod, bolt stock, and fittings.

This die is intended for applications requiring a 1-3/8-24 thread pitch on external surfaces. The 1-3/8-inch major diameter paired with a 24-thread-per-inch pitch is common in precision mechanical assemblies, instrumentation fittings, and specialty fastener work. It is appropriate for job shop, maintenance, and production environments where hand threading or low-speed machine threading is performed. The adjustable feature makes it practical for both first-pass cutting and cleanup passes on existing threads.

Key Features

• 1-3/8-24 thread size for precise external thread cutting
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during threading operations
• Adjustable design allows thread fit tuning and extends die service life
• Right-hand thread direction, the standard orientation for most mechanical applications
• Lightweight at 0.5 pounds, easy to handle at the bench or in the field

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use round die for any standard die stock or threading handle sized to accept a round die of this diameter and thread specification.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed and operated by qualified machinists or maintenance technicians using a properly sized die stock. Secure the die firmly in the stock before use and apply cutting oil to the workpiece to reduce heat and improve thread quality. Ensure the workpiece is held securely in a vise and that the die is started square to the stock axis. Inspect the die for chipping or wear before each use.
