About this deal
There are a few different types of thread chaser; each with their own benefits and use cases. Here are the main types of thread chasing tools available: Hand chasers - Hand chasers are used manually on lathe-turned threads to clean and reinstate threads.
Carbon Steel - Carbon steel thread chasers offer superb durability, reliability, and strength at a premium over regular HSS thread chasers. Thread files - Similar to hand chasers but can be used without a lathe. Thread files are used similarly to traditional files, as users run them along the threads to overlap the good threads and re-file damaged ones. Thread chasers are an incredibly useful tool, designed to restore and refresh damaged threads without harming the base material.The main consideration when purchasing thread chasing tools of any kind is the material of the thread chaser. There are two common choices here: HSS (High speed steel) - The most common and readily available thread chaser material, HSS chasers are affordable and effective. Thread chasers are used throughout manufacturing and engineering industries for all kinds of applications. Their ability to restore threads without removing any metal is highly valued in the automotive and aerospace industries, as well as throughout factories and workshops across a whole range of industries. Die nuts - The most common type of thread chaser, die nuts are shaped like a traditional hex or square nut. They are twisted through the damaged thread and can be operated easily with a standard set or box spanner.
