1/2 in Pipe Die 14 TPI

The Westward 6XZ85 is a replacement pipe die designed for threading 1/2 inch galvanized steel or iron pipe. It cuts right-hand NPT threads at 14 threads per inch using four alloy steel dies. The die head fits Westward handheld manual and power threaders compatible with the 4YR89 series.

Plumbers cutting 1/2 in NPT threads

This die suits professionals and maintenance teams who need to cut or repair threads on 1/2 inch pipe using a Westward 4YR89 compatible threader. It is not for buyers who need a different thread standard, a different pipe diameter, or a die head that fits a non-Westward threading system.

14 threads per inch NPT

The 14 TPI NPT thread pitch is the single specification that determines whether this die matches the required pipe standard. Verify the thread type and pitch against the job requirements before purchasing. The die head compatibility with the 4YR89 series must also match your threader.

Questions about this item

Will the 14 TPI thread pitch on this 1/2 in die match the NPT threads on my existing galvanized steel pipe?

Yes, the die cuts right-hand NPT threads at 14 threads per inch, which is the standard pitch for 1/2 in galvanized steel and iron pipe.

How can I confirm the die is cutting correctly once installed in my 4YR89 die head?

The die should produce clean, uniform threads with no tearing; a proper thread gauge will verify the 14 TPI NPT profile on the finished pipe.

Does the package include the 4YR89 die head or just the four alloy steel dies?

Only the four replacement dies are supplied; the compatible 4YR89 die head must be purchased separately.
