Sherwood Dies

Sherwood dies are for use in die stocks to cut external screw threads on metal rod, the split in the die allows the adjusting screws of the diestock to compress or expand the die to accommodate for slight variations in size of the material being threaded or die sharpness. Sherwood dies are available as Metric Fine, Metric Coarse, UNF, UNC, BA, BSF, BSW, BSPT, BSPF, NPT cutting threads all the dies are manufactured from HSS with precision ground threads to the applicable standard.

For all technical and dimensional specifications please refer to our catalogue.

Left hand Metric HSS Ground Thread Die Nuts ISO 529

Sherwood ground thread die nuts are suitable for repairing damaged or crossed threads and clearing swarf from threads. When using a die nut (on an existing thread) it is not necessary to apply the same level of precise initial alignment required to form a new thread (i.e. with a die) as the nut will follow the existing threads. They are supplied as hexagon drive allowing them to be turned by a standard spanner or adjustable wrench without the need for a special stock.

Conform to: ISO 529

OSG Taps

OSG type 1066 machine taps are manufactured from 3% Vanadium Super Grade High Speed Steel. Increasing the vanadium content improves the toughness without making the tap brittle. This means the tap has a greater resistance to work generated heat, which prolongs the life of the cutting edge.

Spiral Flute taps are suitable for threading blind holes.

Manufactured to ISO 529: 1975.
