Hex Rethreading Pipe Die
The Cleveland Golf C65573 is a hex rethreading pipe die designed for restoring damaged NPT threads on pipes and fittings. It suits plumbers, maintenance technicians and workshop professionals who need to repair existing threads rather than cut new ones. The carbon steel construction provides durability for repeated use on steel and iron pipe work.
Fits standard die stocks and handles
The hex shape allows the die to be turned with a standard wrench or die stock, so no specialised holder is required. It reconditions 3/8 inch 18 threads per inch right-hand NPT threads, freeing the user from replacing entire pipe sections when only the threads are damaged. The 5/8 inch thickness gives enough bearing surface for consistent engagement.
Carbon steel holds up under repeated cuts
Under sustained load the carbon steel cutting edges resist deformation better than softer tool steels, maintaining thread form over multiple repair jobs. The hex body transmits torque evenly, reducing the risk of slippage that can ruin a thread profile. It is not intended for high-volume production threading or for cutting new threads in unthreaded pipe.

Questions about this item
How many threads per inch does the 3/8-18 NPT die cut?
The die cuts 18 threads per inch to match the NPT standard for this pipe size.
Will the carbon-steel die overheat during a long rethreading session?
Carbon steel handles typical hand-operated rethreading without overheating; use cutting oil to reduce friction and heat.
What drive tool is needed to turn the 5/8 in. thick hex die?
A wrench or socket that fits the external hex is required; the die has no internal drive square.
