The die stock is a piece of equipment that is very important to the process of creating uniform threads on different types of screws, bolts, and pipes. Essentially, it is a frame that helps to keep the cutting tools in alignment, thus ensuring that the threads are evenly spaced and are cut to the specifications required. Die stocks can accommodate two different types of cutting tools, usually known as round head and hex head dies.
