Value Collection 84035494 Round Threading Die 1-9/16-20

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 84035494 is a round threading die designed for cutting external threads on rod, pipe, and fastener stock. It produces a 1-9/16-20 thread profile and measures 3 inches in outside diameter, fitting standard round die stocks of that size class. Constructed from high-speed steel (HSS), it maintains cutting-edge hardness under the heat generated by threading operations. The die is adjustable, allowing the operator to fine-tune thread fit and take progressively deeper passes. Right-hand thread direction is standard for the vast majority of fastener and mechanical assembly applications. Machinists, pipefitters, and tool-and-die tradespeople are the primary users.

This die is suited for threading operations in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and fabrication environments where 1-9/16-20 external threads are required. It performs on mild steel, aluminum, brass, and similar machinable materials when used with appropriate cutting fluid. The 3-inch OD format fits correspondingly sized round die stocks or holders, making it compatible with manual and bench-mounted threading setups. It is packaged as a single unit and is appropriate for both production runs and one-off repair or fabrication work.

Key Features

• 1-9/16-20 thread size for external threading on rod and fastener stock
• 3-inch outside diameter fits standard large-format round die stocks
• High-speed steel construction resists heat and maintains edge hardness through repeated use
• Adjustable design allows thread-fit tuning and incremental depth of cut
• Right-hand thread direction matches standard fastener and assembly requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard tooling addition for round die stocks accommodating a 3-inch outside diameter die body.

Installation Notes

Threading dies of this type are installed and operated by machinists or qualified tradespeople using a properly sized round die stock or holder. Always apply cutting fluid appropriate to the workpiece material to extend die life and improve thread quality. Secure the workpiece firmly before beginning the threading pass, and reverse the die periodically to break chips during longer threading runs. Inspect the die for chipped or worn cutting edges before each use to avoid producing out-of-tolerance threads.
