Value Collection 365-1322 Hex Rethreading Die 1-1/2-12 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-1322 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads to their original specification. It cuts a 1-1/2-12 UNF (Unified National Fine) right-hand thread profile and measures 1 inch thick. Machined from carbon steel, it provides the hardness needed to chase and clean threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod without deforming the die under normal hand-tool torque. Maintenance technicians, pipefitters, and general trade professionals keep rethreading dies on hand for field repair work where replacing a fastener or threaded component is not practical.

This die is suited for restoring 1-1/2-12 UNF right-hand external threads on bolts, hydraulic cylinder rods, machine studs, and similar fasteners encountered in industrial, mechanical, and trade service applications. The hex body accepts a standard die stock wrench, making it practical for both bench and field use. It is appropriate for situations where a thread has been nicked, lightly galled, or corroded but the base material remains structurally sound.

Key Features

• 1-1/2-12 UNF thread specification for fine-pitch external thread restoration
• Right-hand thread direction — standard orientation for the majority of fastener applications
• 1 inch thickness provides cutting depth and die body stability during use
• Carbon steel construction delivers hardness suitable for chasing threads on steel fasteners
• Hex body profile fits standard die stock wrenches for controlled torque application

Compatibility

Designed as a rethreading die for restoring 1-1/2-12 UNF right-hand external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod. Fits standard hex die stock wrenches sized for 1-1/2-inch dies.

Installation Notes

Rethreading dies are installed and operated by maintenance technicians, machinists, and trade professionals using a compatible die stock wrench. Always clean and degrease the damaged thread before starting the die to avoid contaminating the cutting edges. Apply cutting oil to the die and workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Do not attempt to rethread material that is cracked, severely corroded, or structurally compromised.
