Baer Circular Die HSS - BSW - Left Hand - For General use - 5/32 x 32

The Baer Circular Die in high-speed steel (HSS) delivers precise external threading on cylindrical workpieces. Designed for general metalworking tasks, it pairs with a die stock for controlled, repeatable thread cutting and long tool life.

• Thread standard: BSW (British Standard Whitworth) with left-hand threading for reverse-direction applications.
• Size: 5/32 in diameter with 32 threads per inch (5/32 x 32).
• Material: High-speed steel (HSS) for toughness and extended tool life.
• Left-hand threading: Specifically engineered to cut left-handed threads when required by your assembly.
• Cutting edges: Precisely ground edges to produce clean, accurate thread profiles and smooth engagement.
• Compatibility: Designed to be used with standard die stocks or die holders for stable, controlled rotation.
• Applications: Ideal for general-purpose external threading on rods, shafts, and similar cylindrical workpieces.

The Baer HSS circular die enables quick, consistent external threads on a range of metals, with a robust construction that resists wear and heat. This translates to fewer reworks and tighter tolerances when pairing with fasteners or nuts. Left-hand threading adds versatility for setups where standard right-handed threads would loosen under operation, making it a reliable choice for repairs, fabrication, and maintenance on vintage or specialized equipment. Use with a compatible die stock to maintain proper alignment and achieve repeatable results across multiple parts.
