Thread cutting die FANAR M12×1.25 hand die (MPN N1-121001-0124)

FANAR thread cutting die M12×1.25 is a hand die designed for cutting and repairing external metric threads with a 1.25 mm pitch. Intended for manual use on rods and shafts, this compact tool suits workshop maintenance, repair and light fabrication tasks where precise M12×1.25 external threads are required. Use with appropriate cutting oil to improve chip evacuation and extend tool life when working with steel and common metals.

Advantages

The hand die offers a simple, durable design that provides consistent thread profile and easy alignment on round stock. Its compact size makes it convenient for tight spaces and mobile work, while compatibility with standard cutting oils helps reduce wear and improve surface finish. The tool is suitable for on-site repair as well as bench use in manufacturing or maintenance environments.

Suitable for

• Cutting new external M12×1.25 threads on rods and shafts
• Repairing damaged external metric threads with 1.25 mm pitch
• Workshop maintenance and machinery repair
• Light fabrication and prototyping of metal components

Key specifications

• Thread type: metric external thread
• Nominal size: M12
• Pitch: 1.25 mm
• Operation: manual hand die
• Suitable materials: steel and common metals when used with cutting oil
• Application: cutting and thread repair on rods and shafts

How to use

Secure the rod or shaft in a vise so it is stable and aligned. Apply cutting oil to the workpiece and the die to reduce friction and help clear chips. Start the die square to the workpiece and turn it by hand, applying steady pressure and making partial turns forward with occasional backing off to break chips. Continue until the required thread length is reached, then reverse the die to remove it. Clean and inspect the thread after cutting.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use an appropriate cutting oil for the material being worked and ensure the workpiece is securely clamped and properly centered. Keep the die clean and free of chips during use; ream or chamfer the rod end slightly before cutting to ensure easy engagement.
