What are die-stocks?

Also known as die holders, die stocks are designed to fit and turn dies to create threading on metal materials and components like fasteners and pipes.

They can hold a range of different sizes and are manufactured to be compatible with hex and split dies. Their t-handle design allows for easy turning of the die, whilst their knurled handles provide good grip for the user. They typically feature three screws that lock into the die into place for accurate threading.

Why use a die stock?

Because die-stocks lock the die into place, they can be relied on to produce highly accurate threads as well as for re-threading damaged threads on components like fasteners.

Considerations when choosing a die-stock

Die-stocks come in a range of sizes, both metric and imperial. To ensure that you select the right die-stock, you must ensure that its sizing is compatible with the die you intend to use the tool with.
