Product details
Description
The Westward Hex Rethreading Die in standard 1-1/4 inch size with a 7 pitch is an essential maintenance tool engineered for repairing, cleaning, and restoring damaged or rusted external threads on bolts, studs, and rods. Crafted from durable carbon steel, this right-hand thread die features a robust six-sided hexagonal exterior design.
Unlike traditional round dies that require a specialized die stock handle, this hexagonal shape allows it to be easily driven using a standard wrench, spanner, or socket, making it exceptionally convenient for tight spaces and on-site repair jobs. Designed primarily for thread cleanup and maintenance work rather than cutting new threads from scratch, it ensures smooth engagement and extends the lifespan of fasteners.
Perfect for mechanical workshops, automotive repairs, and industrial maintenance applications where precision and reliability matter.
How to use
- Select the correct size hex rethreading die for the damaged fastener.
- Apply a suitable cutting oil or lubricant to the threads.
- Fit a standard wrench, spanner, or socket onto the hexagonal exterior of the die.
- Carefully turn the die over the damaged external threads of the bolt, stud, or rod, backing it off slightly if resistance builds up to clear away debris until the threads are fully restored.
