About This Product
A self opening die head cuts an external thread on a bar or turned component. It is held on the turret of a lathe and fed onto the work, and at the set thread length the cutters open out so that the head can be withdrawn without reversing the spindle. In training workshops and tool rooms, die heads are used for repeated threading of studs and bolts after the diameter has been turned to size. The cutter set and head size are selected from the thread required.
