Value Collection 84030302 Round Die 1/4-30 1 Inch Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 84030302 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and cylindrical workpieces. This die cuts a 1/4-30 thread form with a 1 inch outside diameter body that fits standard round die stocks and holders. Manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), the die maintains cutting edge hardness through the heat generated during threading operations. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune thread fit by closing or opening the die slightly via the adjustment screw on the die stock. Right-hand thread direction is standard for the vast majority of fastener and mechanical assembly applications.

This die is suited for machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments where custom-length threaded fasteners or repaired threads are required. It is appropriate for use on mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials. Machinists, tool and die workers, and industrial maintenance technicians typically reach for this type of die when cutting threads by hand with a die stock or when using a lathe tailstock die holder. The 1/4-30 designation is a specialty thread pitch and should be confirmed against the project specification before ordering.

Key Features

• 1/4-30 thread form for specialty threading applications
• 1 inch outside diameter body fits standard round die stocks
• High-speed steel construction retains hardness under cutting heat
• Adjustable design allows fine-tuning of thread fit and tolerance
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1 inch round die stocks and holders compatible with 1 inch OD round dies. Confirm thread form designation before use in application-critical assemblies.

Installation Notes

Threading dies are installed and used by machinists and maintenance technicians familiar with hand or machine threading operations. Secure the die firmly in the die stock before beginning a cut, and apply a suitable cutting fluid to the workpiece to reduce heat and extend die life. Always confirm the workpiece diameter is within the correct tolerance range for the target thread size before threading. Inspect the die for chips or damage before each use.
