Product Description
Milwaukee M5-0.80 mm 1 in. Hex Threading Die
Model Number: 49-57-5329
The Milwaukee 49-57-5329 is an M5-0.80 mm 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 M5-0.80 mm thread, a 5 mm nominal diameter with a 0.80 mm pitch, which is the standard coarse pitch for M5 and one of the most common small metric threads. Note the pitch carefully: Milwaukee offers the M5 die in two pitches, this 0.80 mm coarse version and a 0.90 mm version, so match this die to M5-0.80 mm work and confirm your thread pitch before ordering, since the two are not interchangeable. 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 pitch stay clearly legible over the life of the tool, which matters when you carry both M5 pitches. 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 M5-0.80 mm threads in the most common metal applications, including brass, aluminum, mild steel, and more, which makes it a go-to for machinists, fabricators, technicians, and maintenance crews who need to thread the standard M5 size onto rod or a stud, or clean up a damaged M5-0.80 external thread. It pairs directly with the matching M5-0.80 mm 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.
