M12 DIN 22568 (6g) HSSE INOX Round Threading Die for Stainless Steel

Cutting clean, precise threads in stainless steel and other tough alloys is a challenge that demands a tool built for the task. Standard dies dull quickly or produce rough, inaccurate threads when faced with INOX materials. This M12 round threading die is engineered to solve that problem, delivering smooth, accurate threads in high-alloy steels with confidence.

Who is it for

This die is ideal for machinists, metalworkers, maintenance technicians, and serious DIYers who regularly work with stainless steel, high-alloy steels, or other difficult-to-machine metals. Whether you are repairing a damaged thread or creating new threads from scratch, this tool provides the durability and precision required for professional results.

Main features

• Manufactured from HSSE-Co5 (high-speed steel with 5% cobalt) for exceptional wear resistance and heat resistance, even when cutting stainless steel.
• Precision ground thread profile to DIN 22568 standards ensures accurate M12 x 1.75 mm metric coarse threads with a 6g tolerance class.
• Right-hand cutting direction and standard outer dimensions (30 mm diameter, 11 mm thickness) make it compatible with common die stocks and holders.
• Bright surface finish reduces friction and helps prevent material build-up during threading operations.
• Suitable for both manual and machine threading applications, offering versatility in the workshop.

Tips

Use a suitable cutting fluid when threading stainless steel to prolong die life and achieve a better finish. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and the die is started squarely to avoid cross-threading. For best results, reverse the die periodically to break chips.
