Built from carbon steel, this die handles 2-1\/2-12 thread size with a right-hand thread direction to the UNS standard. Rethreading dies like this one are used to clean up thread forms on bolts, studs, and threaded rod without the need for full re-cutting, making them a practical shop and field tool for maintenance and repair work. The hex outer profile allows standard wrench engagement for controlled torque application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis die is suited for maintenance technicians, millwrights, pipefitters, and general mechanical tradespeople working on heavy equipment, industrial fasteners, or large-diameter threaded components. The 2-1\/2-12 thread designation indicates a 2.5-inch nominal diameter with 12 threads per inch, a coarse pitch common in heavy industrial and mechanical applications. It is appropriate for both shop bench use and on-site repair scenarios where restoring thread integrity is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-1\/2-12 thread size for large-diameter external thread restoration\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand thread direction per UNS standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCarbon steel construction for durability in rethreading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHex outer profile for wrench engagement and controlled operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSingle-piece packaging suitable for individual replacement or toolbox stocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement rethreading die for use on 2-1\/2-12 UNS right-hand external threads on bolts, studs, and threaded rod in industrial and mechanical maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRethreading dies are typically used by machinists, millwrights, or qualified mechanical technicians. Before use, ensure the workpiece is secured and de-energized or depressurized as appropriate to the system being serviced. Apply cutting oil to the die and the threaded workpiece to reduce friction and extend die life. Do not force the die over severely deformed threads — multiple light passes may be required to gradually restore the thread form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2-1\/2-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Carbon Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: VALUE COLLECTION\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 365-2326\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VALUE COLLECTION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51694382874930,"sku":"365-2326","price":268.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d6e2581655aedc101992c075d6439968.jpg?v=1788323891","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/value-collection-365-2326-hex-rethreading-die-2-1-2-12","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
