Value Collection 367-1243 Hex Rethreading Die 1-3/8-6 Unc

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 367-1243 is a hex rethreading die designed to restore damaged or corroded external threads on fasteners and threaded rod. Sized for 1-3/8-6 UNC (Unified National Coarse) threads, this die cuts right-hand threads and is manufactured from high-speed steel for durability under repeated use. At 1 inch thick, it provides solid bite and alignment during rethreading operations. Machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians reach for this die when field or shop repairs require cleaning up stripped bolt threads without full replacement of the fastener.

This rethreading die is suited to maintenance and repair applications across industrial, mechanical, and trade environments. It is commonly used on structural bolts, threaded rod, pipe fittings, and heavy equipment fasteners where 1-3/8-6 UNC thread is specified. Right-hand thread direction matches the standard orientation found on the vast majority of fasteners in these applications. The hex body format allows use with a standard die stock or wrench for controlled, even thread restoration.

Key Features

• 1-3/8-6 UNC thread size for coarse-thread fastener repair
• High-speed steel construction for wear resistance and long service life
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener orientation
• 1 inch thickness provides stable engagement during rethreading
• Hex body design compatible with standard die stocks and wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a rethreading die for external 1-3/8-6 UNC right-hand threads on fasteners, threaded rod, and bolts conforming to Unified National Coarse thread standards.

Installation Notes

Rethreading dies are typically used by machinists or maintenance technicians in shop or field repair settings. Before use, secure the workpiece firmly and apply appropriate cutting oil to reduce heat and improve thread quality. Start the die squarely on the damaged thread to avoid cross-threading. Always wear appropriate eye and hand protection when operating cutting tools.
