Value Collection 364-0102 Hex Rethreading Die M10x1

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0102 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external metric fine threads to their original specification. Sized for M10x1 thread pitch and configured for right-hand thread direction, this die is used to clean up bolt threads, threaded rod, or any external threaded fastener that has been galled, cross-threaded, or rusted. Constructed from carbon steel, it delivers adequate hardness for rethreading tasks on standard ferrous and non-ferrous fasteners. The hex body allows engagement with a standard wrench or die holder for controlled torque application. Weighing 0.06 pounds, the die is compact and easy to store in a field service kit.

This rethreading die is suited for maintenance, repair, and overhaul work across mechanical, plumbing, HVAC, and general trade applications where M10x1 metric fine threaded fasteners are in service. It is particularly useful for equipment that has been exposed to moisture, corrosion, or overtightening, where thread restoration is preferable to full fastener replacement. Technicians working on European or metric-standard equipment will encounter M10x1 threads regularly on brackets, flanges, valve bodies, and mechanical assemblies.

Key Features

• M10x1 metric fine thread size for precise restoration of fine-pitch external threads
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener convention
• Carbon steel construction provides hardness suitable for general rethreading tasks
• Hex body design allows use with a standard wrench or tap-and-die holder
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds, suitable for inclusion in portable tool kits

Compatibility

Designed for use on external metric fine threads conforming to the M10x1 standard. Suitable for rethreading bolts, studs, threaded rod, and similar fasteners encountered in metric-standard mechanical and trade applications.

Installation Notes

Thread restoration with a rethreading die is typically performed by a mechanic or trade technician as part of a repair procedure. Before use, relieve any system pressure and power down associated equipment to prevent injury during fastener service. Apply a suitable cutting oil to the die and the workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Run the die slowly onto the damaged thread, backing off periodically to clear debris, and inspect the restored thread with a nut or thread gauge before returning the fastener to service.
