Actually the deburring tool in the video is for softer metal pipe such as copper. Steel pipe uses a pipe reaming tool to de-bur the inside diameter of the pipe being threaded. Steel pipe should be reamed prior to threading. This is done to return the pipe’s inside diameter to its original bore.

Rigid makes a spiral coned reamer that is ratcheted for the deburring, also worth mentioning is the rigid pipe cutter, which makes a great complete set for this task… Keep on rockin

Do you work for Rigid?. Lol.
Great video. Other instructors say to oil the pipe before starting, and also to back the die up occasionally as you are threading in order to remove the burrs while you cut. Maybe the final reversal does it all at once, but just an alternative suggestion.

Hi I really enjoyed your video. I just bought a cheap conduit threader and tried to thread a 25mm conduit. with alot of pressure from my hand on the die head and turning the ratchet. The die looks like it is cutting but sometimes the ratchet spins or doesn't grab the conduit. And take the conduit out and there is no thread , it has just chewed up the pipe leaving it rough with no groove or thread pitches

@@Caliber8Tools FIY- I NEVER theaded pipe that big..... I thought it would be like theading small 'stock'... I was freakin' putting the tool on the pipe the wrong way! Rookie mistake!!!! But after watching your 'totally rad' video, I corrected my issues and it threaded just fine!!! WOO HOO!!!!! Also,, I HAD my great, great uncles die set from when they worked in the oil fields in OK. in the early 1900s but I got rid of them like 15 years ago! SON OF A!!!!
I want to say that red threading set said It was for British standard pipe thread not National Pipe Taper threads like the blue one. Was the red set a harbor freight purchase online?
Excellent presentation bro! I'm tired of pulling out my 300 Rigid to thread one piece of pipe on a emergency job. This would definitely facilitate things. However, shouldn't you have at least three revolutions on your fitting after threading?

You have a point.
I have a question. I doubt this will work for my application. But one never knows until he asks. I am attempting to thread a 9mm barrel to except a 1/2 x 28 flash suppressor. I have made one attempt already and failed. My problem isn't threading. It's removing 2mm of metal around the barrel to handle the 1/2 cutter. The barrel is 15mm thick. Before I thread I need the barrel to be 13mm. I tried using a grinder. This is where I failed. I wasn't able to get it even all the way around. I don't own a lathe. My question.....would I be able to feed the 15mm barrel into the 1/2 ratchet threader and would it cut 1/2 x 28? I'm hoping the opening to the ratchet is slightly tapered to accommodate the 2mm of extra metal. Thanks to anyone that answers.
@pheloniousmunk
8 ай бұрын
No. Two things....the barrel needs to be 1/2", not 13mm, and you are trying to meld two different types of threads, 1/2" NPT, which is tapered pipe thread, and 1/2 x 28 which is non-tapered machinery thread. Two very different animals. Find someone with a lathe.
Thank you so much. I was a bit confused about Stock and Dies, (the Threading process in general) Question: After you Thread, is it common to need to Ream a pipe again?

At 01:59 you say the dies correspond to the *inner* diameter of the pipe ? Surely you mean the *outer* diameter ?
