Value Collection 364-0272 Hex Rethreading Die M27x2

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 364-0272 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external metric threads to their original specification. Built from carbon steel, this die handles M27x2 thread size with a right-hand thread direction conforming to the metric fine standard. At 1 inch thick with a 2 inch hex body, it seats securely in a standard hex die stock or wrench for controlled, repeatable thread repair. Machinists, maintenance technicians, and field service professionals use rethreading dies like this one when salvaging bolts, studs, or threaded rods that have sustained thread damage from rust, impact, or cross-threading.

This die is suited for metric fine thread restoration work on M27x2 fasteners in industrial, mechanical, and general maintenance applications. It is appropriate for shop use as well as field repair where replacing a threaded component is impractical. The right-hand thread orientation matches the most common fastener convention found in machinery, automotive, and structural assemblies. The 2 inch hex profile allows use with standard die stocks and adjustable wrenches sized for that drive.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 2 inch hex die stocks for rethreading or chasing M27x2 metric fine external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod.

Installation Notes

This tool is operated by hand using a compatible hex die stock; ensure the die stock is rated for the hex size before use. Align the die squarely with the fastener axis before applying torque to avoid cross-threading or die damage. Apply cutting oil liberally when rethreading steel fasteners to reduce friction and extend die life. Inspect the existing thread to confirm the pitch before selecting this die, as metric fine and metric coarse pitches are not interchangeable.
