Product Description
Milwaukee 10-32 NF 1 in. Hex Threading Die
Model Number: 49-57-5327
The Milwaukee 49-57-5327 is a 10-32 NF 1 in. Hex Threading Die, precision machined for creating or repairing clean, accurate external threads. Where a tap cuts internal threads inside a drilled hole, a die does the opposite job: it cuts external threads onto round stock and rod, or chases and restores the damaged threads on an existing screw or stud. This die cuts the 10-32 NF thread, a number 10 machine screw diameter with 32 threads per inch in the National Fine series. Note the thread series carefully: the number 10 size comes in two common threads, this fine 10-32 and the coarser 10-24, so match this die to 10-32 hardware and confirm your thread before ordering, since the two are not interchangeable. The 10-32 thread is widely used in electronics, electrical terminals and ground screws, and rack-mount equipment, so a 10-32 die is a common tool for threading rod and studs or restoring a damaged 10-32 external thread. The defining feature of this die is its 1 in. hex shape: instead of a round die that requires a dedicated round die stock, this hex die is driven with a standard 1 in. wrench, socket, or die stock, so you can run it with tools you already carry and apply solid, controlled torque to the cut.
The die is built for durability and lasting identification. High carbon steel construction holds a sharp cutting edge through the common metal applications it is designed for, and a protective black oxide coating resists corrosion while helping to reduce friction as the die cuts. Milwaukee marks these dies with long-lasting laser-etched sizing rather than stamped markings, so the size and thread series stay clearly legible over the life of the tool, which matters when you carry both the 10-24 and 10-32 dies. The 1 in. hex body seats securely in a wrench or socket for straight, square starts and steady cutting.
This threading die is designed for cutting external 10-32 NF threads in the most common metal applications, including brass, aluminum, mild steel, and more, which makes it a go-to for electronics and electrical technicians, machinists, and maintenance crews who work with 10-32 hardware. It pairs directly with the matching 10-32 NF tap for complete internal and external threading of the same size, drops into the Milwaukee Hex-LOK 2-in-1 Threading Handle for controlled cutting, and is compatible with all standard 1 in. hex die stocks. For the cleanest finish, easiest cutting, and longest die life, use the die with cutting fluid to keep heat and friction down as it works.
