Value Collection 365-0913 Adjustable Pipe Die 1/4-19 Bspt

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-0913 is a round adjustable pipe die designed to cut 1/4-19 BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) external threads on pipe and fittings. Constructed from high-speed steel, it delivers the hardness and wear resistance needed for threading mild steel, iron, and similar materials in the field or shop. The 1-1/2 inch outside diameter fits standard round die stocks of that size. The adjustable design allows the technician to fine-tune thread fit by slightly opening or closing the die for a first-pass rough cut or a final finishing pass. Plumbers and pipefitters working with BSPT-threaded components on imported equipment or international piping systems will find this die sized and threaded to spec.

This die is suited for shop use and field threading operations where BSPT-standard connections are required. BSPT threads are commonly found on imported valves, fittings, and instrumentation used in plumbing, hydraulics, and industrial piping applications. It is appropriate for use in both residential and light commercial settings wherever a 1/4-inch BSPT male thread must be cut on pipe or nipple stock. A licensed plumber, pipefitter, or experienced mechanic would typically perform this work.

Key Features

• 1/4-19 BSPT thread form for compatibility with British Standard Pipe Taper connections
• High-speed steel construction for extended cutting life and heat resistance
• Adjustable design allows thread fit adjustment without changing tooling
• 1-1/2 inch OD fits standard round die stocks sized for that diameter
• Right-hand thread direction for conventional pipe threading operations

Compatibility

Designed for use in any round die stock that accepts a 1-1/2 inch OD round die. Suitable for cutting external 1/4-19 BSPT threads on pipe, fittings, and nipple stock in plumbing and industrial piping applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and used by licensed plumbers, pipefitters, or trained machinists. Secure the die firmly in a correctly sized die stock before beginning the threading operation, and apply cutting oil throughout the process to protect the cutting edges and improve thread quality. Always deburr and chamfer the pipe end before threading to prevent die damage and ensure a clean thread start. Verify that BSPT threads are specified for the fitting or valve being connected, as BSPT and NPT thread forms are not interchangeable.
