• 1/2″ x 14 BSPT 2″ HSS Button Die – Goliath
  • HSS CIRCULAR SPLIT BUTTON DIE
  • HSS Button Dies (also known as Adjustable Dies) are designed for cutting external threads.
  • They are used for threading rods, bolts, and studs, either by hand using a die stock, or by machine using a floating die holder.
  • They also can be used to cut smaller or larger, than factory setting, by utilising the adjusting screws in the die holder.
  • Dies are manufactured with a thread chamfer to aid starting.
  • M2-HSS material provides increased wear resistance and superior thread accuracy.
  • British Standard Pipe Taper (RC Series Pipe Taper) is based on the Whitworth thread form – a symmetrical V-thread with an angle of 55°.
  • BSPT has been widely adopted internationally for interconnecting and sealing pipe ends by mating an external (male) with an internal (female) thread.
  • The thread diameter increases along the length of the thread allowing the coupled pipes to form a seal when torqued as the flanks of the threads compress against each other.
  • The taper is “1 to 16”, meaning that for each 16 mm increase in the distance from the end, the diameter increases by 1 mm.
