Value Collection 365-1082 Hex Rethreading Die 1-1/8-12 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-1082 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads to their original specification. Built from carbon steel, this die measures 1 inch thick with a 2-inch hex profile, and it cuts a 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand thread. Rethreading dies are used by mechanics, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians to salvage threaded fasteners, bolts, and fittings without full replacement. The hex body seats securely in a standard die stock or adjustable wrench for controlled hand operation.

This die is suited for repair and maintenance work on threaded fasteners in HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical applications where 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand external threads need to be chased or restored. It is appropriate for use on steel, iron, and similar ferrous fasteners and hardware found in residential and light commercial equipment. The 2-inch hex size accommodates common die stocks and wrenches available in most trade toolkits.

Key Features

• 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand thread form for standard unified fine thread restoration
• Carbon steel construction provides hardness suitable for rethreading ferrous fasteners
• 1 inch thickness gives the die adequate length of engagement for clean thread chasing
• 2-inch hex profile fits standard die stocks and adjustable wrenches
• Right-hand thread direction matches the majority of standard fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or supplemental tooling for applications requiring 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand external thread restoration on ferrous hardware and fasteners.

Installation Notes

Rethreading dies are installed and operated by licensed mechanics, pipefitters, or maintenance technicians familiar with thread repair procedures. Before use, clean the damaged fastener or bolt of debris, rust, and old thread compound. Apply cutting oil to the die and fastener surface to reduce heat and extend die life. Inspect the workpiece threads before and after chasing to confirm proper fit and engagement.
