Value Collection 367-0282 Hex Rethreading Die 7/16-20 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 367-0282 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners, fittings, and threaded rod. Sized for 7/16-20 UNF thread, this die cuts in the right-hand direction and is manufactured from high-speed steel for durability under repeated use. It is used by mechanics, pipefitters, and field technicians who need to clean up or recut fine unified threads quickly without replacing the entire fastener. The hex body accepts a standard die stock or adjustable wrench for straightforward manual operation.

This rethreading die is suited for maintenance and repair applications across HVAC, plumbing, and mechanical trades. The 7/16-20 UNF specification is common on flare fittings, valve stems, and fasteners found in both residential and light commercial equipment. It is well suited for field service work where restoring a thread in place is faster and more practical than sourcing a replacement component.

Key Features

• 7/16-20 UNF thread size for fine-pitch external thread restoration
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation
• High-speed steel construction resists wear during repeated rethreading passes
• Hex body design works with a standard die stock or adjustable wrench
• Compact single-piece construction suitable for field tool kits

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style rethreading tool for any external 7/16-20 UNF right-hand threaded fastener, fitting, or threaded rod requiring thread repair or restoration.

Installation Notes

This die is intended for use by qualified trade professionals performing thread repair on equipment that has been de-energized and, where applicable, depressurized before service. Apply cutting oil or thread lubricant to the die and work surface before use to reduce friction and extend tool life. Start the die squarely on the damaged thread to avoid cross-threading. Consult applicable trade codes and safety standards when performing repairs on pressurized or energized systems.
