Baer Circular Die HSS – BSC – Right Hand – For General use – 5/16 x 26 is a precision external-threading tool designed to create clean, standard threads on cylindrical stock. It’s built for workshops, hobbyists, and professionals who need reliable results with minimal setup.

• Material: High-speed steel (HSS) construction for durability and wear resistance in common metals.
• Thread size: 5/16 x 26 external thread; aligns with British Standard Cycle (BSC) specifications used in bicycle components and general hardware.
• Direction: Right-hand threading for standard external threads.
• Design and seating: Four holes and a V-groove to secure the die in a matching die stock, providing stable alignment during cutting.
• Compatibility: Designed to be used with a die holder or die stock; can also be mounted in a tailstock or drill press for versatile setups.
• Cutting edges: Precision-ground cutting edges ensure clean, accurate thread formation with smooth engagement.
• Lubrication: Use cutting oil or paste to optimize material removal and extend die life.

With the Baer circular die, you get a reliable tool that delivers consistent external threads in a single operation when used with proper support. The HSS body offers longevity under repetitive use, while the well-defined cutting edges promote clean thread forms that resist galling and cross-threading. Ideal for general threading tasks, including bicycle-related components and other 5/16 x 26 applications, this die pairs well with standard die stocks or tailstock setups to fit your workflow.
