Value Collection 365-0006 Hex Pipe Die 1/8-27 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-0006 is a hex pipe die designed to cut external NPT threads on pipe and pipe fittings. It produces a 1/8-27 NPT thread profile with a right-hand thread direction and is sized to fit a 1-1/16 inch hex die stock or wrench. Constructed from carbon steel, this die delivers the hardness and edge retention needed for threading mild steel, iron, and similar materials commonly used in plumbing and HVAC piping applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians use this die for field and shop threading tasks.

This pipe die is suited for threading 1/8 inch nominal pipe in residential and light commercial plumbing, HVAC gas line, and general pipe fabrication work. The 1/8-27 NPT specification matches the standard taper thread form required for pressure-tight pipe joints in water, gas, and air systems. It is a practical tool for shops or service vans that require reliable pipe threading capability in smaller nominal sizes.

Key Features

• 1/8-27 NPT thread profile for standard tapered pipe threads
• Right-hand thread direction for conventional pipe threading
• 1-1/16 inch hex body fits standard die stocks and wrenches
• Carbon steel construction for durability on mild steel and iron pipe
• Compact and lightweight at 0.0375 pounds for easy transport and storage

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard-fit die for 1-1/16 inch hex die stocks that accept NPT pipe dies in the 1/8-27 thread size.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and operated by plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified maintenance technicians using a compatible hex die stock. Secure the die firmly in the die stock before beginning the threading operation, and apply appropriate cutting oil to the workpiece to extend die life and produce clean threads. Always follow applicable code requirements such as the IPC or IFGC when threading pipe for potable water or gas service. Inspect the die for wear or damage before each use and replace if cutting edges appear dull or chipped.
