Description
Overview:
The Volkel M12 Hexagon Die Nut is a workshop-grade rethreading tool for restoring damaged or corroded external metric threads on bolts, studs, and shafts. Manufactured from hardened steel for wear resistance, it tidies up distorted threads rather than cutting new ones, helping you salvage fixings and avoid downtime. The hexagon profile allows simple drive with a standard spanner or socket, making it practical for on-site repair work where access is limited. Sized for M12 threads (12 mm diameter, approximately 0.472 in), it follows the ISO metric 60° thread form. Ideal for maintenance on automotive, plant, and general machinery, it provides a clean, concentric finish when used with suitable cutting oil. Check thread pitch and hand (coarse or fine; right- or left-hand) before purchase to match the fastener you’re repairing.
Key Features:
- Size: M12 (12 mm diameter ≈ 0.47 in)
- Type: Hexagon die nut for external thread repair/cleaning
- Hardened steel construction for durability and edge retention
- Drives with a standard spanner or socket for easy use on-site
- ISO metric 60° thread form; verify pitch (coarse/fine) before use

- Solid, non-split design for strength and consistent alignment
Typical Applications:
Used for restoring M12 external threads on wheel studs, suspension and chassis bolts, engine and gearbox fixings, agricultural and plant fasteners, construction anchors, guard rails, racking, marine hardware, and general fabrication. Helpful in maintenance, repair, and overhaul where fasteners have suffered corrosion, paint build-up, or minor damage. Not intended for cutting new threads from plain bar; best used to chase and clean existing threads for smooth nut engagement and reliable torque settings.
