Value Collection 84035368 Round Die 9/16-36 Hss Adjustable

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 84035368 is a round threading die designed to cut external threads on rod, bolt stock, and other cylindrical workpieces. Sized for a 9/16-36 thread profile and manufactured from high-speed steel (HSS), this die delivers the hardness and heat resistance needed to maintain sharp cutting edges through repeated use on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The adjustable design allows the technician to fine-tune thread fit by slightly opening or closing the die body, enabling cleanup passes and minor tolerance adjustments without a separate chasing die. It cuts a right-hand thread to the UNS standard.

This die is suited for machine shops, maintenance and repair operations, and field service work where custom-length threaded fasteners or rethreading damaged stock is required. The 9/16-36 designation indicates a 9/16-inch nominal diameter with 36 threads per inch, a fine-pitch specification commonly encountered in precision mechanical assemblies, instrumentation, and specialty fastener applications. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, and experienced maintenance technicians are the typical end users.

Key Features

• High-speed steel construction for extended cutting life and heat resistance
• Adjustable die body allows thread fit fine-tuning without additional tooling
• Right-hand thread direction for standard fastener applications
• 9/16-36 UNS thread profile for fine-pitch precision work
• Single-piece packaging suitable for individual replacement or kit supplementing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use round die for standard die stocks and die holders sized to accept the appropriate round die body diameter. Verify die holder compatibility by confirming the outer diameter of the die body matches your existing die stock before use.

Installation Notes

Round dies are installed and secured in a matching die stock using the set screws provided on the die holder — ensure all set screws are fully seated before beginning threading operations. Secure the workpiece firmly in a vise or fixture to prevent movement during thread cutting. Apply appropriate cutting fluid to the workpiece to reduce heat buildup and improve thread finish. Inspect the die cutting edges for wear or chipping before each use and replace if edges show visible damage.
