Goliath BSPT HSS Circular Solid Button Die

• HSS Circular Solid Button Die
• HSS Button Dies (also known as Adjustable Dies) are designed for cutting external threads.
• They are used for threading rods, bolts, and studs, either by hand using a die stock, or by machine using a floating die holder.
• They also can be used to cut smaller or larger, than factory setting, by utilising the adjusting screws in the die holder.
• Dies are manufactured with a thread chamfer to aid starting.
• M2-HSS material provides increased wear resistance and superior thread accuracy.
• British Standard Pipe Taper (RC Series Pipe Taper) is based on the Whitworth thread form - a symmetrical V-thread with an angle of 55º.
• BSPT has been widely adopted internationally for interconnecting and sealing pipe ends by mating an external (male) with an internal (female) thread.
• The thread diameter increases along the length of the thread allowing the coupled pipes to form a seal when torqued as the flanks of the threads compress against each other.
• The taper is "1 to 16", meaning that for each 16 mm increase in the distance from the end, the diameter increases by 1 mm.
