Threading Die FANAR M16x1.5 (model N2-188001-0165) — external metric die M16×1.5

FANAR threading die M16x1.5 is an external metric die designed to cut or restore M16×1.5 threads on rods, bolts and shafts. Suitable for both manual and machine use in metalworking, it produces a standard M16 thread form with 1.5 mm pitch. The tool is intended for repair, assembly and maintenance tasks where accurate external metric threads are required.

Advantages

This external die offers consistent thread geometry and reliable pitch accuracy for M16×1.5 applications. It is compatible with common die holders and can be used by hand or in suitable threading machines, providing versatility for workshop and field work. The die is suitable for rethreading damaged fasteners as well as cutting new threads, reducing the need to replace components.

Suitable for

• Cutting new M16×1.5 external threads on rods and shafts
• Restoring worn or damaged M16×1.5 threads on bolts and studs
• Maintenance and repair tasks in mechanical workshops
• Assembly operations requiring standard M16 fastening threads

Key specifications

• Thread type: external metric
• Nominal size: M16
• Pitch: 1.5 mm
• Application: cutting and rethreading on rods, bolts and shafts
• Use mode: manual and machine-compatible

How to use

Secure the die in an appropriate die holder or machine fixture, align it square to the workpiece and apply cutting oil to reduce friction and improve surface finish. Start threading with light, even pressure and advance the die while keeping it perpendicular to the shaft. Periodically reverse the die slightly to clear chips and prevent clogging. For rethreading, clean the damaged area and remove burrs before engaging the die.

Usage recommendations

Use suitable cutting lubricant for the material being threaded and check thread fit with a matching nut or gauge after cutting. Store the die dry and clean to prevent corrosion and inspect cutting edges before use to ensure accurate threads and longer tool life.
