Value Collection 82261309 M3x0.75 Hss Round Threading Die

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 82261309 is a round threading die designed to cut external metric threads on rod, bolt blanks, and fastener stock. It is machined from high-speed steel (HSS), which retains hardness at elevated cutting temperatures and extends service life compared to carbon steel tooling. The die cuts a right-hand, M3x0.75 thread profile — a metric special designation specifying a 3 mm nominal diameter with a 0.75 mm pitch. The adjustable design allows the cutting diameter to be fine-tuned for fit and to compensate for die wear. Machinists, tool and die makers, and maintenance technicians use this die with a standard round die stock or holder.

This die is suited for threading small-diameter metric fastener stock in manufacturing, repair, and maintenance applications. It is appropriate for bench work, manual threading operations, and light production tasks where a metric special thread form is required. The M3x0.75 pitch is commonly encountered in precision instrument work, optical equipment, and fine-threaded fastener applications where a coarser standard pitch is not appropriate.

Key Features

• M3x0.75 metric special thread profile for precision small-diameter threading
• High-speed steel construction for durability and heat resistance during cutting
• Right-hand thread direction — standard for the majority of threading applications
• Adjustable die body allows fine-tuning of thread fit and compensation for wear
• Round die form fits standard round die stocks and holders

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard round die stocks and holders sized to accept this die body. Intended for cutting M3x0.75 metric special external threads on compatible workpiece materials.

Installation Notes

Secure the die firmly in a properly sized round die stock before use. Apply cutting oil to the workpiece and die before and during threading to reduce friction, extend die life, and improve thread finish. Ensure the workpiece is chamfered at the lead end to help start the die squarely. Follow shop safety practices — secure the workpiece in a vise and keep hands clear of the cutting edges during operation.
