RUKO SCE-DIN223-M18x2.5mm Round Die, Metric Coarse Thread, HSS, Ground, 45 mm OD, 14 mm Thickness, Right-Hand

Round die for cutting metric coarse threads with a nominal diameter of M18 and a pitch of 2.5 mm. The die is made of high-speed steel (HSS) and manufactured by grinding, ensuring precise thread profiles and long tool life. It conforms to DIN 223 and is suitable for threading unalloyed and low-alloyed steels with a hardness up to 800 N/mm².

Advantages

Ground HSS construction delivers clean, accurate threads and high wear resistance. The bright, uncoated surface reduces friction during cutting and allows easy chip evacuation. The die is designed for right-hand threads, the most common type in general engineering.

Suitable for

• General-purpose threading of unalloyed and low-alloyed steels
• Creating or repairing external metric coarse threads
• Use with a standard round die stock (not included)
