FANAR threading die knob for taps M16–M20 V0-103000-4518

FANAR threading die knob for taps M16–M20 is a manual holder designed to secure and rotate external cutting dies for metric threads. The tool accepts standard round or hexagonal dies sized for M16 to M20 threads and provides a stable grip and controlled torque for cutting or repairing threads on shafts and studs. Intended for workshop use and field repairs, the knob helps maintain alignment and even pressure during manual tapping operations.

Advantages

The die knob offers a compact, ergonomic design that improves control when forming or restoring external metric threads. Its construction ensures a secure hold on cutting dies, reducing slippage and uneven thread cutting. The tool is suitable for use in confined spaces and supports consistent torque application to protect dies and workpieces from damage.

Suitable for

• Manual cutting of external metric threads (M16–M20)
• On-site thread repair and maintenance
• Workshop metalworking tasks involving shafts and studs
• Situations requiring controlled, hand-applied torque

Key specifications

• Compatible thread size range: M16–M20
• Designed for use with round or hexagonal external cutting dies
• Hand-operated knob for manual die rotation
• Compact form factor suitable for confined work areas
• Material: durable metal/plastic composite construction for grip and strength

How to use

Insert the chosen external cutting die into the knob clamp and secure it according to the tool's clamping mechanism. Position the die squarely on the shaft or stud, then apply steady, controlled rotational force to cut or reform the thread. Use cutting oil when machining to reduce friction and improve surface finish. Reverse the rotation periodically to clear chips and check thread progress frequently to avoid overcutting.

Usage recommendations

For best results, select the correct die size for the required thread pitch and ensure the workpiece is properly supported and aligned. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and lubrication during threading operations. Inspect cutting dies for wear before use and replace them when edge damage affects thread quality.
