A Look at the Different Types of Threading Dies
5 min readThreading Dies are mainly used to form or cut a male thread on the outside of rods or bars. It also provides precision in cutting or extends the life of the die by reducing wear. Also used for either thread cutting or thread forming. The metric threading die is different as a thread pitch is specified instead of threads per inch, or threads per millimeter. These are also used in a variety of applications. Taps and Dies can be used to create new threads or repair damaged threads.
Features: These have Several Variations Including:
- Top Adjusting Screws
- Side Adjusting Screws
- Non-Adjustable Screws

- CTC Chaser: We are a CTC Chasers Manufacturer in Houston Texas. CTC Chasers are made in compliance with international standards. These are also available in different threads, angles, and profiles. CTC Chasers are heat-treated in microprocessor-based heat treatment furnace to impart optimum hardness, rigidity, and cutting power. Profile: U and V. It is widely used in the Fasteners and Tea plantation Industry.
- External Thread Dies: External Thread Dies are mainly used to cut the portion of the mating pair. DIC External Thread Dies is made from HSS in M2 and M35 grades. It is available in all sizes and material as per customer requirements. Also used to cut the portion of the mating pair. External threads, like bolts and studs, are made by using a tool called a DIE, which is enforced to a special diameter of rod for the size and pitch of the threads you want to cut.
- Hex Dies/Hexagon Rethreading Dies: Hex Dies areused for dressing over the bruised or rusty thread. It is the most cost-effective rethreading tool available. The dies are also used to repair rusty or worm threads. For this type of Die, no special holder is needed.
DIC range of Hex Dies Include:
- HSS hex dies
- Carbon steel hex dies
- Suitable for maintenance in a shop or field.
- Hex Dies Set: Hex Dies Set is suitable for routine maintenance, repair work, and for rethreading where high accuracy and tolerance thread is not critical. Our Hex Dies Set is made from the best quality material and manufactured out of steel, aluminum, and special grey cast iron in a number of sizes. Some sets are used as cutting tools, and others are used to form the threads. These are perfect all-in-one sets for cutting, preserving and cleaning internal and external threads.
- Multistart Thread Cutting Dies: Our Multistart Thread Cutting Dies is made using high-quality raw material. We are a Threading Dies Manufacturer and exported to various countries worldwide. Material: HSS M2, M35, and solid carbide. The dies are also known for their anti-corrosive nature and persistence.
- Cylindrical Thread Rolling Dies: DIC TOOLS is a Cylindrical Thread Rolling Dies in Houston Texas. These Dies are suitable for a wide range of precision threaded parts. It is used with Thread Rolling Machine and automatic lathes for small diameter. These dies maintain far better run out and excellent thread quality.
- Rack Type Rolling Dies: Rack Type Rolling Dies require low maintenance and high durability. The Dies are made using advanced technology and modern equipment. These are mainly used for automotive parts production. The Dies are supplied with all types of coatings. They come in two types: Vertical and Horizontal Type.
- Carbide Drawing Dies: These are also known as cemented carbide drawing pallets. It is used for a full range of wide drawing applications like drawing steel wires, steel bars and tubes, etc. We have also available special coating for the dies on customer requirements. The high compressive power of tungsten carbide permits it to handle extreme pressure, making it ideal for use in drawing dies.
