Value Collection 367-1082 Hex Rethreading Die 1-1/8-12 Unf

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 367-1082 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners, bolts, and threaded rod. It cuts a 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand thread profile and is manufactured from high-speed steel for durability across repeated use. The hex body measures 2 inches across flats, allowing standard hex die stocks and wrenches to drive it securely. At 1 inch thick, the die provides sufficient thread engagement depth for accurate rethreading on typical fastener stock. This tool is suited for maintenance, repair, and fabrication work in mechanical, plumbing, and industrial trade environments.

This rethreading die is used when external threads on a fastener or threaded component are damaged, crossed, or corroded and need to be chased back to specification without full replacement. The 1-1/8-12 UNF thread size is common in hydraulic fittings, heavy machinery fasteners, and precision mechanical assemblies. It is appropriate for use in both shop and field repair scenarios where a portable hex die stock is available. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians are the typical users for this type of tooling.

Key Features

• 1-1/8-12 UNF right-hand thread form for standard unified fine thread applications
• High-speed steel construction resists wear during rethreading of hardened fasteners
• 2-inch hex body fits standard hex die stocks for positive torque transfer
• 1-inch thickness provides adequate engagement depth for accurate thread restoration
• Right-hand thread direction matches the majority of standard fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement hex rethreading die for use in standard 2-inch hex die stocks compatible with 1-1/8-12 UNF thread applications.

Installation Notes

This die is installed and driven using a standard hex die stock sized for a 2-inch hex. Ensure the fastener or threaded component is secured before applying torque. Apply cutting oil to the thread surface before use to reduce heat buildup and extend die life. Inspect the die for chipping or wear before each use, as damaged cutting edges can further deform threads rather than restore them.
