Value Collection 364-0082 Hex Rethreading Die M8x1

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0082 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external metric fine threads. It cuts an M8x1 thread profile in a right-hand direction, making it suited for chasing and cleaning threads on bolts, studs, and fasteners without requiring full thread removal. Constructed from carbon steel, this die delivers the hardness needed for rethreading on common fastener materials encountered in mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial service applications. The hex body allows a standard die wrench or adjustable wrench to drive it, keeping the job simple in tight service environments.

This rethreading die is intended for field and shop use where M8x1 metric fine threads need to be restored rather than replaced. It is well suited for maintenance technicians, millwrights, HVAC mechanics, and plumbers who regularly service equipment with metric fasteners. The right-hand thread direction matches the standard rotation for the vast majority of metric fasteners found in mechanical equipment, appliances, and imported machinery.

Key Features

• M8x1 metric fine thread profile for precise thread restoration
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation
• Carbon steel construction provides hardness for repeated use on common fastener materials
• Hex body compatible with standard die wrenches and adjustable wrenches
• Compact size suits tight spaces in equipment service applications

Compatibility

Designed for rethreading external M8x1 metric fine threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rods in mechanical and trade service applications.

Installation Notes

This die is intended for use by qualified mechanics and trade professionals familiar with thread chasing and rethreading procedures. Before use, clean the damaged thread area and apply cutting oil to reduce friction and extend die life. Drive the die by hand using a properly sized die wrench, keeping it square to the fastener axis to avoid cross-threading. Never use impact tools to drive a rethreading die.
