Value Collection 82260509 Round Die M1.7x0.2 Hss Metric Fine

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 82260509 is a round threading die designed to cut external M1.7x0.2 metric fine threads on bolts, screws, and threaded rod stock. Machined from high-speed steel (HSS), this die maintains cutting-edge hardness under the heat generated during threading operations. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit by compressing or expanding the die body slightly via set screws, accommodating minor variations in stock diameter or achieving a closer tolerance on the finished thread. Right-hand thread geometry is standard for the M1.7x0.2 thread form. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and maintenance technicians use this die when fabricating or restoring precision small-diameter metric fasteners.

This die is suited for use in bench-mounted die stocks or hand threading applications where M1.7x0.2 metric fine external threads are required. The small diameter thread profile is common in precision instrumentation, miniature mechanical assemblies, and fine-pitch fastener repair work. Its compact round-die form fits standard die holders sized for the corresponding die OD. Professional machinists and industrial maintenance personnel are the primary users for this type of tooling.

Key Features

• M1.7x0.2 metric fine thread form for small-diameter external threading
• High-speed steel construction retains hardness and edge life under cutting heat
• Adjustable die body allows thread fit fine-tuning via set screw compression
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener convention
• Metric fine thread standard for precision pitch control

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style threading die for use in standard round die stocks and holders sized to accept the corresponding die OD for M1.7x0.2 metric fine thread applications.

Installation Notes

Secure the die in a properly sized die stock before use. Ensure the workpiece is held firmly in a vise and that cutting oil or thread-cutting fluid is applied to reduce heat and improve thread finish. Apply steady, even pressure and back off periodically to clear chips. Inspect the die for wear or chipping before each use, as damaged cutting edges produce out-of-tolerance threads.
