Value Collection 84035338 Round Die 1-3/8-27 Hss

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 84035338 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads in metal stock, bolts, and rod. Sized for a 1-3/8-27 thread profile and machined from high-speed steel (HSS), this die holds cutting geometry under the heat and friction generated in production and repair threading work. The adjustable design allows the operator to fine-tune the die opening for a first-pass rough cut or a finished-thread final pass. Right-hand thread direction is the standard orientation for the majority of threaded fastener applications encountered in mechanical, industrial, and maintenance work.

This die is suited for threading operations in machine shops, maintenance and repair facilities, and fabrication environments. It is used when new threads must be cut on unthreaded stock or when damaged external threads need to be re-chased to restore fit. The 1-3/8-27 designation covers thread pitch applications common in pipe fittings, couplings, and specialty mechanical assemblies requiring that specific pitch. It seats in a standard round die stock handle sized for the die's outer diameter.

Key Features

• Thread size 1-3/8-27 for cutting or re-chasing that specific external thread profile
• High-speed steel construction maintains hardness and edge life under cutting heat
• Adjustable die opening supports rough and finish threading passes
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener and fitting conventions
• Round die form fits standard round die stock holders

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard tooling option for use in any round die stock handle sized to accept this die's outer diameter, for cutting 1-3/8-27 right-hand external threads.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed and used by machinists, maintenance technicians, and metalworkers. Secure the die firmly in the die stock handle before beginning a threading pass and apply cutting oil to the workpiece to reduce heat and extend cutting life. Start the die square to the workpiece axis to prevent cross-threading. Inspect the die for chipped or worn cutting edges before each use, as a damaged HSS die can produce out-of-tolerance threads.
