• Thread Type: Right-hand external threads, suitable for most standard fasteners and fittings.
• Size: 18 x 1/8 (18 mm major diameter with 1/8" pitch) for common industrial and workshop applications.
• Cutting Edges: Precisely ground cutting edges to produce accurate thread form and smooth engagement with mating parts.
• Compatibility: Designed to be used with a die holder or die stock for controlled rotation and consistent cutting.
• Durability: Baer reputation for precision and longevity in circular dies, optimized for general-use scenarios.

With the Baer circular die, you can reliably create or repair external threads on metal shafts, rods, and other cylindrical components. The HSS construction withstands routine use across common metals, while the exacting edge geometry minimizes chatter and cross-threading, delivering consistent thread pitches and fit. Use in workshops, machine shops, or home setups to accelerate assembly tasks, improve fastener engagement, and extend the life of mating parts through accurate threading. Pair with a compatible die stock for easy rotation and steady cutting, and apply light lubrication to maximize tool life and finish quality.
