Choose the Correct Fit
Confirm 1/8-27 NPT is the specified thread. Check the thread form as well as nominal size and pitch.
Fit the die’s 1 in hex body into a Hex-LOK 2-in-1 handle or a standard die stock that accepts that hex size.
Installation & Care
Secure the work and start the die square. Milwaukee recommends cutting fluid for the best results.
Clear chips safely with the tool stopped. Clean and dry the die, and check its cutting edges before reuse.

Important Product Questions
Will it cut an internal thread?
This die cuts or repairs external threads. An internal threaded hole requires a suitable tap rather than this hex die.
Which holder should I choose?
A 1 in hex body fits the Hex-LOK 2-in-1 handle or a matching standard die stock.
Can I substitute a nearby thread size?
Use the specified 1/8-27 NPT form. NPT and BSP threads are not interchangeable; match the specified pipe-thread standard.
