Value Collection 365-2006 Hex Rethreading Die 2-12

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 365-2006 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on bolts, studs, and fasteners. It cuts a 2-12 thread size with a right-hand thread direction and conforms to UNS thread standards. Made from carbon steel, this die delivers the hardness needed for field or shop thread repair on common fastener materials. It is a practical tool for maintenance mechanics, plumbers, electricians, and general trade technicians who need to salvage threaded fasteners rather than replace them entirely.

This rethreading die is suited for both residential and commercial maintenance applications where bolt and stud threads have been damaged by rust, impact, or over-torquing. The hex body style allows use with a standard wrench or rethreading die set, making it practical for confined spaces and field service work. It handles the 2-12 thread specification, covering large-diameter fasteners commonly found in structural, mechanical, and piping assemblies.

Key Features

• 2-12 thread size for large-diameter fastener restoration
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation
• UNS thread standard for broad compatibility with inch-series fasteners
• Carbon steel construction provides hardness suitable for thread chasing and restoration
• Hex body design accepts standard wrenches for controlled application

Compatibility

Designed as a rethreading die for external inch-series fasteners conforming to UNS thread standards in the 2-12 thread size.

Installation Notes

Thread restoration dies are typically used by maintenance mechanics and trade technicians working on existing fastener assemblies. Before use, ensure the fastener and surrounding area are clean and free of debris that could damage the die. Apply cutting oil or thread lubricant to the die and fastener during use to reduce heat and extend tool life. Inspect the restored thread with a matching nut before returning the fastener to service.
