Die Stock steel 55 x 22 mm

• for clamping and guiding a round die during manual external thread cutting
• for workshop use where the round die outside dimensions match the holder size
• for maintenance, assembly, and repair work on bolts, rods, and external thread starts

Note The die stock is a holding tool and does not cut a thread without a correctly selected round die.

• Steel construction is stated in the product name and supports robust manual holding of round dies.
• The stated holder dimensions give a practical selection criterion for the round die body.
• A dedicated die stock improves hand control compared with improvised clamping methods.
• The holder separates die guidance from the cutting edge, which helps protect the round die during use.

• The die stock only works with round dies that match its holder dimensions, so check the die outside diameter and height before use.

1. Select a round die with outside dimensions matching the die stock.
2. Place the round die into the holder with the correct cutting direction.
3. Tighten the clamping screws evenly so the die is held securely.
4. Align the die stock square to the bolt or rod before starting the external thread.
5. Drive the die with steady hand pressure and suitable cutting fluid.
6. Remove chips from the work area and check the thread with the required inspection method.
7. Clean the die stock before storage.

What does this die stock do?

It holds and guides a round die during manual external thread cutting.

Does the die stock cut the thread itself?

No, the cutting action comes from the separately selected round die.

How do you choose the correct die stock?

Choose it by the outside dimensions and height of the round die, then check that the clamping method fits the die body.

Can it be used for internal threads?

No, internal threads require taps and a suitable tap holder rather than a die stock.

What should you check before starting?

Check the round die seating, cutting direction, workpiece chamfer, and alignment before applying cutting pressure.
