Understanding the Size
The 1" dimension refers to the outside diameter of the die, which determines the holder size required. The selected thread size determines the diameter of the thread produced. All dies in this listing are specified at 32 TPI.
Key Features
- High speed steel construction for thread cutting.
- Circular split design.
- 32 TPI Model Engineer thread form.
- 1" outside diameter for a matching die holder.
- Manufactured in the UK.
Typical Applications
Suitable for producing external ME threads on components for models, miniature mechanisms and workshop projects requiring the selected diameter and 32 TPI pitch.
Using the Die
Prepare the workpiece to the correct diameter and chamfer the starting end. Secure the die in a suitable holder, start square to the workpiece and use an appropriate cutting lubricant for the material being threaded.
Ordering
Select the required ME thread diameter from the available options before adding to your basket. Check that both the diameter and 32 TPI pitch match your project.
