  • High-speed steel construction extends wear life during threading operations

  • California Proposition 65 warning indicates chemical safety awareness required

M46x2 Threading Die

The Drill America DWTSMR3-46X2 is a 3-inch outside-diameter high-speed steel round adjustable die cut for M46x2 threads. It is intended for machinists and maintenance technicians who need to cut or chase external threads on large-diameter rod or pipe.

Chamfered Faces for Holder Use

Both faces are chamfered; one side offers a 2-to-3-thread lead for starting cuts and the other a 1-to-1½-thread lead for work close to a shoulder. The fine-pitch adjustment screw lets the die expand or contract, and the bevelled slot allows the screw to be removed so the die can be locked and adjusted from a machine holder instead.

Replaces Worn Fixed Dies

This adjustable die replaces fixed round dies that have lost their cutting edges on M46x2 work. The jump is worth it when thread volume justifies re-sharpening intervals or when a single die must cover slight tolerance variations across multiple jobs. The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for cancer and reproductive-harm chemicals.
