Value Collection 365-0026 Hex Pipe Die 3/4-14 Npt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-0026 is a hex pipe die designed for cutting 3/4-14 NPT external threads on pipe stock. The die is manufactured from carbon steel and features a 2-inch hex outer diameter, allowing it to seat in standard hex die stocks. Right-hand thread direction is standard for NPT pipe threading applications. Plumbers, pipefitters, and mechanical contractors use this die when fabricating threaded pipe assemblies in the field or shop. It produces the tapered thread profile required by the NPT standard for pressure-rated pipe connections.

This die is suited for threading 3/4-inch nominal pipe in residential and commercial plumbing, HVAC piping, and industrial pipe fabrication. It is used with a compatible hex die stock or threading machine that accepts 2-inch hex dies. Typical applications include fabricating threaded nipples, cutting threads on black iron gas pipe, and rethreading damaged pipe ends. The right-hand thread direction is consistent with standard NPT pipe connections used throughout plumbing and gas piping systems.

Key Features

• 3/4-14 NPT thread size produces tapered threads conforming to the NPT standard
• 2-inch hex outer diameter fits standard hex die stocks
• Carbon steel construction for durability in repetitive threading operations
• Right-hand thread direction for standard NPT pipe connections
• Single-die design for straightforward stock replacement and field use

Compatibility

Designed for use with hex die stocks and threading tools that accept a 2-inch hex die for 3/4-14 NPT thread cutting applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and operated by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or qualified mechanical tradespeople. Ensure the die stock is clean and the die is fully seated and locked in the holder before use. Apply appropriate cutting oil to the pipe and die during threading to extend die life and produce clean thread profiles. Inspect finished threads with a NPT thread gauge or fitting check before assembling pressure-rated connections.
