Thread Cleaning Die

Thread cleaning dies are tools used to remove dirt, debris, and rust from the threads of screws, bolts, and other threaded fasteners. They are part of the supply class Taps, Dies, and Collets, which falls under the supply group Hand Tools.

Thread cleaning dies are designed to restore damaged or dirty threads, allowing for smoother and more efficient threading. They typically have a series of cutting edges or ridges that match the thread pitch and size of the fastener being cleaned. By running the die along the threaded portion of the fastener, the dirt and debris are removed, improving the functionality and longevity of the fastener.

These dies are commonly used in various industries, including automotive, construction, and manufacturing, where threaded fasteners are frequently used. They are available in different sizes and thread pitches to accommodate a wide range of fastener types.

It is important to note that thread cleaning dies should be used with caution and proper technique to avoid damaging the threads of the fastener. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's instructions or seek professional advice if you are unsure about using a thread cleaning die.
