With a hand held die set, select the required die head and secure it in to the die cast. Once securely in place simply place the die set onto the material to be threaded and gently rotate. As it rotates, the die will begin to cut a thread into the material. It is recommended to back the die off half a turn to remove debris after every two full turns.

It is recommended that lubrication is regularly applied to the die set when in use, to allow for friction free threading with precision. This will ensure that a clean thread is achieved with minimal damage.
