Value Collection 364-0163 Hex Rethreading Die M16x2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0163 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads to their original profile. Built from carbon steel, this die handles M16x2 metric coarse threads and is configured for right-hand thread direction. Rethreading dies like this one are used by mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians to salvage threaded fasteners, bolts, and rods without full replacement. The hex body accepts a standard die stock or wrench for controlled hand operation. It is a straightforward, single-purpose tool suited for shop and field repair work.

This die is appropriate for use on M16x2 metric coarse fasteners found in general industrial machinery, automotive assemblies, structural equipment, and maintenance applications. It is well suited for repair scenarios where a bolt or stud has sustained thread damage from corrosion, cross-threading, or impact. Technicians working in fabrication, heavy equipment service, or plant maintenance will find this a practical addition to a thread repair kit. Package quantity is one die per unit.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement rethreading die for use on M16x2 metric coarse external threads across general industrial, automotive, and mechanical maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and operated by hand using a die stock or appropriately sized wrench. Before use, ensure the damaged thread area is clean and free of debris. Apply cutting oil to the die and the workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Do not force the die over severely deformed threads in a single pass — work gradually and back off periodically to clear material.
