Value Collection 315-1673 Round Threading Die 2-12 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 315-1673 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and cylindrical workpieces. Sized at 3 inches outside diameter with a 2-12 thread specification, this die is manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS) for sustained cutting performance across ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit by controlling die opening, which is useful when chasing damaged threads or cutting to a specific class of fit. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, pipefitters, and maintenance trades use dies of this type for threading stock in shop and field applications.

This die is suited for threading operations requiring a 2-12 right-hand external thread. The 3-inch OD fits standard round die stocks and holders designed for that size. Typical applications include fabricating threaded fasteners, repairing damaged bolt threads, and producing custom-length threaded rod. The right-hand thread direction is the standard orientation for most mechanical fastening applications in industrial, maintenance, and construction trades.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and operated by machinists or qualified trade professionals using a matching round die stock. Secure the die firmly in the die stock before use and ensure the workpiece is clamped or held securely. Apply appropriate cutting oil to the workpiece and die to extend tool life and improve thread quality. Inspect the die for chips or wear before each use.
