Greenlee 1458TROD Threaded Rod Die Set 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, and 5/8 for 30T Shear

Using the Greenlee 1458TROD is a breeze. First, make sure you're using it with the Greenlee Shear 30T. The Quick Die Change System means you can swap out the dies easily without any tools or loose parts. Just pick the right die size for your threaded rod - you've got 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", and 5/8" options. The die grooves will help you insert the dies correctly every single time. When you make a cut, the retaining spring pin hole in the dies will let them retract, so you can use them again and again. As for maintenance, keep the dies clean after each use. Since they're made of tool steel, they're pretty tough, but avoid using them on materials that are thicker than 3/4" (19.05 mm). And always double - check the laser - marked catalog numbers and sizes to ensure you're using the right die for the job. That way, you'll keep getting those burr - free, precise cuts for a long time.
