Baer Circular Die HSS – NPT, Right Hand, 1/2 x 14 is a precision external threading tool designed for general metalworking tasks. When used with a die stock, it delivers clean, accurate threads on cylindrical stock for plumbing, hydraulic, and maintenance applications.

• Material: High-Speed Steel (HSS) construction provides excellent wear resistance and edge retention for repeated threading tasks.
• Thread Type: NPT (National Pipe Taper), right-hand threads suited for standard pipe fittings and common metalworking applications.
• Size: 1/2" nominal diameter with 14 threads per inch (1/2 x 14) for mid-size projects.
• Cutting Edges: Precisely ground cutting edges ensure clean, accurate thread formation and smooth engagement with mating parts.
• Use and Compatibility: Designed to be used with a standard die stock or holder for straightforward rotation and controlled cutting.
• Durability: Engineered for longevity in typical workshop environments, maintaining performance across multiple cuts.
• Applications: Ideal for plumbing fittings, hydraulic ports, automotive repairs, and general threading tasks on metal stock.

By using this Baer circular die, you get reliable, burr-free external threads that fit securely with corresponding nuts or couplings. The NPT taper provides a proper seal when mated with fittings, reducing leak risk. The HSS core resists wear, so you’ll experience longer service life between replacements. Its compatibility with standard die stocks means easy setup and consistent results, even on time-sensitive projects. The 1/2 x 14 size covers a common range of pipe and fitting sizes, making it a practical addition to both professional shops and DIY setups.
