Threading die for 3/8-16 UNC bolts

The Cleveland Golf C65606 is a solid carbon-steel hex die that cuts right-hand UNC threads at 16 threads per inch. Its 25/32 inch outside diameter and 3/8 inch thickness fit standard die stocks used in automotive and maintenance workshops. Mechanics and technicians use it to restore damaged external threads on bolts and studs.

Cutting action under sustained use

The uncoated bright finish provides a clean cutting surface that resists galling during repeated passes. Carbon steel construction maintains edge geometry when threading mild-steel fasteners in a single session. The solid hex body transmits torque evenly from a wrench or die stock without flex that would degrade thread form.

Heat and resistance in normal operation

Friction generates heat only at the cutting faces, and the carbon steel body conducts it away without temper loss in typical hand-driven applications. No powered rotation is involved, so noise is limited to the sound of metal removal. Power draw is not applicable because the tool is operated manually.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the C65606 hex die generate during extended use?

The die is a solid carbon-steel hand tool with no moving parts, so it produces no measurable heat or noise when threading 3/8-16 UNC bolts.

What drive tool is required to turn the 0.7031 in hex on the C65606?

A 0.7031 in (25/32 in) wrench, socket or adjustable spanner fits the hex body to drive the 16 TPI right-hand threads.

Will the C65606 rethread bolts made to older USS standards?

The die cuts Unified Coarse 3/8-16 UNC threads, which share the same pitch and diameter as legacy USS 3/8 fasteners, so it restores those threads directly.
