- UNC 1" HSS Button Die - TO SUIT A 1' DIE STOCK
- HSS Circular Split Button Die
- HSS Button Dies (also known as Adjustable Dies) are designed for cutting external threads.
- They are used for threading rods, bolts, and studs, either by hand using a die stock, or by machine using a floating die holder.
- They also can be used to cut smaller or larger, than factory setting, by utilising the adjusting screws in the die holder.
- Dies are manufactured with a thread chamfer to aid starting.
- M2-HSS material provides increased wear resistance and superior thread accuracy.
- Unified National Coarse thread form was introduced in 1948 as an attempt to standardise thread forms in the USA, Canada and the UK.
- The thread profile of UNC is the same as for metric threads and is described in the JIS B0206 standard.
- The thread is described by its major diameter and the number of threads per inch of length (TPI).
- This thread series is commonly used in the mass production of bolts, screws and nuts.
- It is used for threading into lower tensile strength materials (bronze, brass, aluminium and plastics) to obtain the best resistance to stripping of the internal thread.
- It is also used on quick assembly or disassembly or if corrosion or slight damage is possible.
