Nothing local that had this size in stock. Amazon had it delivered next day. I thankfully had enough thread to get it started, and it worked perfectly on my O2 sensor stud. I also sprayed some WD-40 as a lubricant.

I bought these to rethread stump grinder cutting wheel teeth. The teeth and threads take a beating and are often hard to rethread when the teeth are turned. This die worked well.

I damaged lug studs on my 2011 Subaru outback and this product saved me a lot of work replacing them. Worked great in my case, no complaints.

I ordered this when it was on sale, for $4! Super affordable.Got it to cleanup a few threads on banged up bolts.The die came in nice and clean, no rust spots or damage. Threads were nice and clean.After running it on my banged up bolts, the threads were clean and the bolts functioned very well.Happy with the performance of this die.The odd thing is that the package says: made in Japan.The listing says: Country of origin: JapanThe die says: INDIA. Hence my comment about having spelled Japan wrong.Most likely, the dies were made in India but put in packages from the time when die was made in Japan.I'm giving it 4 stars as it functioned very well. However, keeping the last star off since I only freshened up threads on a bolt, not cut new ones from scratch on a hard material like steel or stainless steel.For this price though, this is a great buy.

This metric die is incredible. It turns out that the rod that I was trying to thread was slightly hardened. This die refused to break and got the job done. Unbelievable. Very happy with purchase.

I've only used this once to restore a badly damaged thread, but it worked great. Cuts well, very good quality.

I just got this in today and it saved me probably $200 in labor for a $2 wheel stud. My newly acquired used car was missing the front two factory locking lug nuts and when I bought all new lug nuts, lo and behold the empty front right stud had screwed up threads. The first section of the threads was so damaged it actually tore up the inexpensive lug nut I was trying to fasten. Fast forward to today, I spray some WD-40 equivalent on a known good thread and try this die out to chase the threads. Seems to work fine, light hand pressure is all it takes. I spray the heinous stud with lube and start trying to work the die onto the thread. I fiddle with this for several minutes but can't seem to get it started at all without it tilting at an angle which I know won't work correctly. I admittedly got frustrated and grabbed some channel lock pliers, figuring if it's trashed it's trashed and the die is cheap. I get the die to where it seems to be straight but hand pressure doesn't come close to moving it, hit it with more lube and grip it with the pliers and start to turn it. The amount of force needed was significant enough to make me slightly worried so I grabbed my safety glasses, (hard metals can be brittle and I didn't want to risk anything if it shattered under pressure) and kept at it. I want to be clear that the force I applied with the pliers wasn't more than what I would call moderate, and sometimes even quite low in certain areas. It stayed pretty straight and finally hit the existing, functional section of threading and I was able to use hand pressure again. I chased the threads all the way back to front many times and spent time going back and forth over little bumps of resistance but none of them seemed to smooth out very much. I then hit the studs and hub with a Simple Green/Water mix because you don't want any lube left behind in this area. I took a good lug nut and it threaded on perfectly, I couldn't detect any patches of abnormal resistance. The process was a little tense since I haven't used taps or dies before and money was at stake but I'm absolutely thrilled with the result. For the price you can't beat this, even if you mess up it's worth the attempt.
