Key benefits — why you need this round thread die Fast, reliable thread repair: the rounded die profile restores damaged or worn external threads cleanly, reducing downtime and scrap. Easier and more accurate threading: the smooth, rounded design produces clear thread form and minimizes the chance of cross-threading. Durable performance: made from alloy tool steel with high hardness for strong wear resistance and a long service life. What the tool does Corrects or cleans external threads on bolts, studs, and rod stock. Functions as a round thread die for thread repair, reconditioning, and general thread processing tasks. Suitable for repeated use where consistent, clean thread profiles are required. Key specifications and attributes Design: rounded die profile for smooth, accurate thread cutting and repair. Function: external thread correction and cleaning; general thread processing. Material: alloy tool steel — high hardness and enhanced wear resistance for extended tool life. Performance: maintains clear, well-defined threads with reduced effort and fewer passes. Compatibility and usage notes Designed for external threads on bolts, studs, rods, and similar cylindrical parts. Works in hand-held die stocks or compatible holders designed for round thread dies. Use with appropriate cutting or tapping lubricant for best results and longer life. Practical use scenarios Repairing a stripped bolt on machinery: restore thread form quickly to reuse the bolt without replacing the fastener or part. Cleaning corroded or dirty pipe or rod threads before assembly: remove buildup and restore thread engagement for safer, tighter fittings. Finishing newly cut threads on metal rods or studs: produce a clean, consistent thread profile for assembly. Why this die stands out Rounded design for clear thread form and reduced rework. Alloy tool steel construction for higher hardness and wear resistance. Simple, effective solution for thread repair, maintenance, and light production work.
