Value Collection 365-1321 Hex Rethreading Die 1-1/2 6 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-1321 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners and threaded rod. Cut to a 1-1/2-6 UNC thread specification with a right-hand thread direction, this die is 1 inch thick and machined from carbon steel for durability under repeated use. Rethreading dies like this one are standard shop and field tools for plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and general maintenance mechanics who need to clean up bolt or rod threads without full replacement. The hex body allows use with a standard die stock or wrench.

This rethreading die is suited for restoration work on 1-1/2-inch diameter fasteners and threaded components with a 6 TPI UNC coarse pitch. Typical applications include restoring threads on pipe fittings, structural bolts, threaded rod, and equipment mounting hardware found in mechanical, plumbing, and HVAC installations. It is appropriate for both shop bench work and field service where thread damage from corrosion, impact, or cross-threading needs to be corrected quickly without replacing the fastener.

Key Features

• 1-1/2-6 UNC thread specification for coarse-pitch restoration on large-diameter fasteners
• 1 inch thick hex body provides stable engagement during rethreading
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation
• Carbon steel construction delivers hardness suitable for repeated thread cleanup passes
• Hex profile fits standard die stocks and adjustable wrenches for easy torque application

Compatibility

Designed as a standard rethreading die for use on 1-1/2-6 UNC right-hand external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod across mechanical and trade applications.

Installation Notes

Rethreading dies are typically used by mechanics, plumbers, and HVAC technicians performing field or shop thread restoration. Secure the workpiece firmly before engaging the die. Apply cutting oil or thread lubricant to reduce heat and extend die life. Always confirm thread specification matches the fastener before beginning to avoid further thread damage.
