Value Collection 364-0142 Hex Rethreading Die M14x1.25

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0142 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external metric fine threads to their original specification. Built from carbon steel, this die handles M14x1.25 thread size with a right-hand thread direction. It is used to chase and clean threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod without removing the fastener from the assembly. Machinists, mechanics, and field service technicians keep rethreading dies on hand for fast thread repair on automotive, industrial, and mechanical equipment where replacing the fastener is not practical.

This die is suited for thread repair work in automotive service, equipment maintenance, and general mechanical applications where M14x1.25 metric fine threads are common. The hex body allows a standard wrench or die holder to drive the tool. It is appropriate for use on carbon steel, mild steel, and similar ferrous fastener materials encountered in typical shop and field repair scenarios.

Key Features

• M14x1.25 metric fine thread size for restoration of fine-pitch external threads
• Right-hand thread direction — standard orientation for the majority of fastener applications
• Carbon steel construction provides adequate hardness for chasing threads on common ferrous fasteners
• Hex body design compatible with standard wrench or die stock for controlled torque application
• Lightweight at 0.09 pounds — easy to carry in a service kit or toolbox

Compatibility

Designed for rethreading M14x1.25 right-hand external metric fine threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod in automotive and general mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

Thread repair dies are typically used by machinists, automotive technicians, and maintenance mechanics. Before use, clean loose debris and rust from the damaged thread area. Apply cutting oil or thread lubricant to the die and fastener to reduce friction and extend tool life. Run the die slowly and back off periodically to clear chips. Do not use this die to cut new threads into unthreaded stock — it is intended for restoring existing thread profiles only.
