Value Collection 84031367 Round Die 5/16-36 1in Od Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 84031367 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on fasteners, studs, and round stock. Ground from high-speed steel (HSS), it holds a sharp cutting edge through repeated use on steel, aluminum, and similar metals. This die cuts a 5/16-36 thread form with right-hand thread direction and features an adjustable design that allows minor sizing correction for fit and finish. The 1-inch outside diameter fits standard 1-inch round die stocks and holders. It is suited for machine shop work, maintenance and repair operations, and field threading tasks performed by machinists, pipefitters, and maintenance technicians.

This die is used to chase or cut 5/16-36 external threads in production and MRO environments. The 5/16-36 designation reflects a 5/16-inch nominal diameter with a 36 threads-per-inch pitch, making it appropriate for fine-thread applications where vibration resistance and close tolerances are required. It fits into a standard 1-inch OD round die stock, which is a common size in machine shops, toolrooms, and field service kits.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for extended cutting life on ferrous and non-ferrous materials
• Adjustable design allows minor thread size correction via set screws in the die stock
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener applications
• 5/16-36 thread form with fine 36 threads-per-inch pitch for vibration-resistant joints
• 1-inch outside diameter fits standard round die stocks and holders

Compatibility

Designed for use in standard 1-inch OD round die stocks. Cuts 5/16-36 right-hand external threads on rod, bolts, and studs made from steel, aluminum, and similar machinable materials.

Installation Notes

Secure the die in a properly sized 1-inch round die stock before use, ensuring the set screw engages the adjustment slot. Apply cutting fluid appropriate for the workpiece material to extend die life and improve thread finish. When chasing existing threads, align the die squarely with the workpiece axis to avoid cross-threading. Adjustable dies should be set to the correct thread tolerance before cutting production quantities.
