Die holder YATO YT-2985, steel, silver, length 450 mm

The YATO YT-2985 die holder is a steel tool designed to hold round threading dies for manual cutting of external threads. With a length of 450 mm and a silver finish, the holder provides the necessary reach and leverage for working on rods and pipes. It secures the die firmly in place to maintain alignment and control during threading operations in workshops or on-site service tasks.

Advantages

The steel construction ensures durability and resistance to deformation when applying torque. Its 450 mm length offers extended reach and improved mechanical advantage for cutting threads on longer workpieces. The silver finish helps reduce surface corrosion and allows for easy cleaning. The design focuses on stable die positioning and straightforward clamping, facilitating repeatable manual threading with controlled feed and alignment.

Suitable for

• Manual threading of rods and pipes
• Workshop maintenance and repair tasks
• On-site field service where portable threading tools are needed
• Creating or repairing external threads on metal components

Key specifications

• Material: steel
• Finish: silver
• Overall length: 450 mm
• Type: round die holder for external threading dies

How to use

Select a compatible round threading die and place it into the holder, ensuring the die seats squarely and the clamping mechanism engages. Position the die holder onto the workpiece with the die aligned to the intended thread start. Apply steady, controlled torque while advancing the holder to cut the thread, using cutting fluid as appropriate to reduce friction and improve chip evacuation. Reverse slightly at intervals to break chips and clear the flutes, then continue until the required thread length is achieved. After use, clean debris and apply light protection to the steel surface to limit corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate-sized dies that match the workpiece diameter and thread profile. Apply cutting fluid for cleaner threads and reduced wear. Inspect the die and holder for damage before use and replace worn components to maintain thread quality and operator safety.
