Q: What materials is this die suitable for?
A: It is best suited for low to medium hardness metals such as mild steel, aluminum, and brass. For hardened steels or stainless alloys, a more specialized die is recommended.

A: Yes. Its flat hexagon design allows use with a wrench or die stock in tighter areas where traditional round dies might not fit easily.
Q: How should this die be lubricated?
A: Use suitable cutting oil or lubricant during threading to reduce friction, improve surface finish, and extend die life.
