Value Collection 365-1484 Hex Rethreading Die 1-3/4-5 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-1484 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod. It cuts a 1-3/4-5 UNC right-hand thread profile and measures 1 inch thick, giving it the rigidity needed for controlled, accurate thread restoration. Made from carbon steel, the die delivers reliable cutting performance across a range of ferrous and non-ferrous fastener materials. This tool is used by HVAC techs, plumbers, pipefitters, electricians, and general maintenance professionals whenever field-damaged threads need to be cleaned up and returned to specification without replacing the fastener.

This rethreading die is suited for maintenance and repair applications in mechanical, industrial, and trade environments. It is used on external threads that have been cross-threaded, rusted, or otherwise damaged, allowing the fastener to be reused rather than discarded. The 1-3/4-5 UNC specification makes it appropriate for heavy fasteners commonly found in structural, mechanical, and equipment-mounting applications. The hex body design accepts a standard die stock or adjustable wrench for manual operation in the field or at the bench.

Key Features

• 1-3/4-5 UNC thread size for restoration of coarse-thread external fasteners
• Right-hand thread direction, the standard for most fastener applications
• 1 inch thickness provides structural rigidity during thread cutting
• Carbon steel construction for durable cutting performance
• Hex body design compatible with standard die stocks and adjustable wrenches
• Single-piece unit packaged individually for direct field or shop use

Compatibility

Designed for use on 1-3/4-5 UNC right-hand externally threaded fasteners including bolts, studs, and threaded rod. Fits standard die stocks sized for the hex body of this die.

Installation Notes

Rethreading dies should be installed by qualified trade professionals familiar with thread cutting tools and proper die stock use. Before starting, clean the damaged threads of dirt, rust, and debris, and apply a cutting oil or thread lubricant to reduce heat and improve cut quality. Engage the die squarely onto the fastener to avoid cross-threading; back off periodically to clear chips during the cutting pass. Do not force the die on severely deformed threads that exceed the die's cutting capacity, as this can damage both the die and the fastener.
