Value Collection 82260053 Round Die M1x0.2 High Speed Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 82260053 is a round threading die designed to cut external metric fine threads on bolts, screws, and round stock. Made from high-speed steel, it holds cutting edge hardness at elevated temperatures, making it well suited for production threading and repair work. The M1x0.2 designation means it cuts a 1 mm nominal diameter thread with a 0.2 mm pitch. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune the die diameter for a better thread fit or to compensate for minor tool wear. This die is intended for use by machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians working with small-diameter metric fasteners.

This die is used in applications requiring precise small-diameter external threads, including instrument manufacturing, electronics assembly, and precision mechanical fabrication. The right-hand thread direction is the standard orientation for the vast majority of metric fastener applications. It fits standard round die holders sized for M1 dies and is appropriate for both bench-mounted and hand-held die stock use. The metric fine thread standard makes it suitable for applications where a finer pitch than metric coarse is needed for greater thread engagement or vibration resistance in thin-walled or precision components.

Key Features

• M1x0.2 metric fine thread form for small-diameter external threading
• High-speed steel construction retains hardness under cutting heat
• Adjustable die body allows thread diameter fine-tuning
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard metric fastener orientation
• Compact round die form fits standard die stock holders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling option for round die holders and die stocks accommodating M1 metric fine threading dies.

Installation Notes

A licensed machinist or trained technician should secure the die firmly in a properly sized round die stock before use. Ensure the adjusting screw is set before beginning the threading pass and apply appropriate cutting fluid to extend tool life and improve thread finish. Do not force the die onto stock that exceeds the nominal diameter without first adjusting the die opening. Follow applicable shop safety practices and wear appropriate eye protection during all threading operations.
