Value Collection 365-1266 Hex Rethreading Die 1-7/16-16

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-1266 is a hex rethreading die used to restore damaged or corroded external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod. It cuts a 1-7/16-16 UNS right-hand thread profile and is manufactured from carbon steel for reliable hardness and wear resistance in shop and field use. At 1 inch thick, the die provides sufficient thread engagement for accurate rethreading. The hex body measures 1-7/16 inches across flats, allowing standard die stock or wrench drive. Machinists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians reach for this type of die when a fastener thread is too damaged to accept a nut cleanly.

This rethreading die is suited for maintenance and repair operations in industrial, mechanical, and commercial settings. Typical applications include restoring threads on hydraulic fittings, structural fasteners, pipe flanges, and machinery studs where full thread replacement is not practical. The 1-7/16-16 UNS thread form covers a range of heavy-fastener applications common in industrial equipment and mechanical assemblies. It is intended for use by experienced tradespeople performing thread repair as part of scheduled or corrective maintenance.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and operated by machinists, millwrights, or maintenance technicians using a properly sized die stock or wrench. Before rethreading, clean the fastener of debris, rust, and old thread compound. Apply cutting oil to the die and the fastener to reduce heat and extend die life. Follow applicable shop safety practices and wear appropriate hand protection when operating cutting tools.
