Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available for these rethreading dies?
We offer a range of metric coarse thread sizes from M6 to M20, including M6, M8, M10, M12, M16, and M20. Other sizes can be supplied on request.
Can these dies be used on stainless steel fasteners?
While primarily intended for carbon steel, they can be used on stainless steel with the aid of cutting fluid. For regular stainless steel work, high-speed steel (HSS) dies are recommended.
How do I use a hex rethreading die?
Place the die over the damaged thread, align it squarely, and turn it with a wrench or die stock. Apply cutting oil to reduce friction and produce a clean thread.
Are these dies suitable for shipboard maintenance?
Yes, they are ideal for rapid at-sea repairs of threaded components. They help eliminate downtime and reduce the need for costly replacements of bolts and studs.
