Type: | Round Threading Die |
Definition: | Round dies are thread cutting tools used for producing external threads. Round dies are round and usually have three or more cutting edges. They are either used for manual use of die holders or clamped into the quill to use in a turning lathe. |
Description: | Thread dies are available in the split round adjustable, or hex varieties. The hex dies are fixed, whereas the split round dies can be adjusted with a set screw. Round die holders are available in a variety of diameters for the split round adjustable dies. |
Application: | Dies are used to make external threads on a rod, creating a threaded surface that allows a bolt to be fastened to it. The die is applied to a specific diameter of rod for the size and pitch of the threads you want to cut. An external thread (screw thread), is cut by hand with a round die that is fixed in a die stock. |
Others: | What is the difference between a rethreading die and a threading die? With threading dies you want them to cut the metal, so a positive rake at the cutting edges is required. For re-threading dies, you do not want to cut metal, but rather to push the metal back where it belongs. |
