Baer Circular Die HSS – Metric Fine, Right Hand, M12 x 1.25 is a precision external-threading tool designed for stainless steel workpieces. When used with a die stock, it delivers clean, accurate threads with repeatable results, making it a reliable choice for machinists and fabricators.

• Material: High-Speed Steel (HSS) construction for durability and wear resistance when threading stainless steels.
• Thread Type: Metric fine pitch M12 x 1.25, right-hand threading to match common metric fasteners.
• Cutting Edges: Precisely ground cutting edges to form smooth, accurate threads that engage reliably with mating parts.
• Design & Usability: Designed for use with standard die stocks or die holders, allowing controlled rotation and consistent cutting.
• Application: External threading on cylindrical workpieces such as shafts and rods in stainless steel applications.
• Durability: HSS construction supports repeated use; lubrication with cutting oil or paste is recommended to extend tool life.

Using the Baer circular die produces consistent threads that mate reliably with nuts, couplings, and fasteners, reducing rework and speeding assembly. The M12 x 1.25 fine pitch on stainless steel minimizes vibration and loosening in demanding applications, while the HSS tooling resists wear for longer service between sharpenings. Lubrication during cutting helps manage heat and chip formation, contributing to smoother operation whether you’re repairing a single part or running a small batch.
