Value Collection 364-0224 Hex Rethreading Die M22x2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0224 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external metric fine threads. It fits standard hex die stocks and die holders, allowing technicians to chase and clean M22x2 threads without replacing the fastener or threaded component. Constructed from carbon steel, this die delivers reliable cutting performance on common fastener materials encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical service work. The right-hand thread orientation matches standard fastener convention. This type of tooling is used by maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and mechanical service professionals working with metric-threaded hardware.

This rethreading die is suited for field repair and shop use wherever M22x2 metric fine threaded fasteners, fittings, or rods have been damaged by rust, impact, or cross-threading. It is appropriate for use on bolts, studs, and threaded rod in residential and light commercial mechanical systems. The M22x2 designation indicates a 22 mm nominal diameter with a 2 mm thread pitch, which is a standard metric fine specification used across a range of mechanical and fluid system components.

Key Features

• M22x2 metric fine thread profile restores standard 22 mm diameter, 2 mm pitch external threads
• Right-hand thread direction matches conventional fastener orientation
• Carbon steel construction provides adequate hardness for rethreading common steel and softer fastener materials
• Hex outer profile fits standard die stocks and die holders for controlled cutting torque
• Single-piece die for straightforward field or bench use

Compatibility

Designed as a rethreading die for M22x2 right-hand metric fine external threads. Fits hex-style die stocks and holders sized for this die format. Specific holder compatibility should be confirmed against the die's outer hex dimension prior to use.

Installation Notes

This die is installed into a compatible hex die stock before use. Secure the workpiece or fastener before applying cutting pressure. Apply cutting oil to the threads and die before and during rethreading to reduce heat and extend die life. Do not force the die if resistance is high — back off periodically to clear swarf and prevent damage to the die or workpiece.
