Professional Pipe Threading Kit
The Ridgid 36475 manual ratchet threader set covers pipe diameters from 1/2 inch to 2 inches NPT. Six snap-in die heads lock securely from either side for quick size changes on site. It is built for plumbers and maintenance crews cutting right-hand threads on steel or iron pipe. This kit does not serve users who need powered threading for high-volume production.
Sustained Job-Site Operation
The ratchet mechanism maintains consistent leverage through full threading passes without motor fatigue. Alloy dies hold their edge across repeated cuts in black or galvanised pipe. The fixed die-head geometry keeps thread pitch accurate over long runs. The tool cannot meet the speed demands of contractors threading hundreds of joints per shift.
Hand-Powered Thermal Profile
No motor means zero electrical draw and no heat build-up during extended use. Noise is limited to the ratchet click and chip formation, well below powered-driver levels. The all-steel construction absorbs cutting heat without warping. Users requiring continuous high-torque output without operator effort should consider powered alternatives.

Questions about this item
How much effort does the ratchet handle require when threading 2 in pipe all day?
The manual ratchet uses alloy dies that snap in from both sides and lock in place, letting you apply steady leverage without powered force.
What pipe stock and cutting oil must I supply before using the 36475 kit?
You need NPT pipe in 1/2 in to 2 in sizes and a suitable threading cutting oil; the kit provides only the ratchet assembly, handle, six die heads and six alloy dies.
Will the right-hand NPT dies cut correctly on older galvanised pipe I already have?
Yes, the six right-hand NPT die heads cover 1/2 in through 2 in, matching the thread standard used on legacy galvanised and black iron pipe.
