Troubleshooting

Die is not cutting threads properly

Ensure the die is sharp and free from damage. Apply adequate cutting fluid. Check that the die is properly seated in the die stock and that sufficient pressure is being applied. Verify you are threading onto a material with the correct M12 x 1.75mm diameter.

Threads are rough or uneven

Use a steady, even pressure while threading. Ensure the workpiece is securely held. Clean the die for any obstructions in the cutting flutes. Consider using a coarser cutting oil.

Die is difficult to turn

This can indicate the workpiece material is too hard or that the die is dull. Ensure you are using appropriate lubrication. Do not force the die; back it off occasionally to clear chips and reapply lubricant.
