This 8463 7/8-14 NF Hex Die from IRWIN INDUSTRIAL TOOL CO - ACH delivers reliable, accurate threading for automotive and general repair work.

Pliers, Sockets And Wrenches Compatibility
The hex design allows quick gripping with standard wrench and socket sizes, reducing the need for specialized holders in the field.

Use with a compatible die stock or wrench adapter to stabilize the die for straight, even cuts. This makes it a practical addition to any automotive hand tools set where thread repair, restoration or custom thread cutting is required.
Professional Hand Tools And Heavy Duty Automotive Tools
Engineered for professional hand tools applications, the 8463 Hex Die is suited for heavy duty automotive tools tasks such as restoring damaged bolt threads, creating new external threads on shafts, and finishing repairs in mechanical, industrial or fleet maintenance settings. Its high carbon steel construction balances hardness and toughness to resist chipping while maintaining sharp cutting edges. The die’s NF profile ensures compatibility with fine-thread fasteners common in automotive assemblies.
Buyers looking for dependable threading performance will appreciate the simple size marking, durable material, and the ability to pair the die with commonly available die stocks and wrenches. Technicians and mechanics will find it useful for maintenance benches and mobile tool kits where space and reliability are both priorities.
