The RIDGID 36900 Die Head is a precision alloy die head designed to cut clean 1-inch NPT threads quickly. It comes with a complete set of 1-inch high-speed steel dies and is compatible with RIDGID power drive threaders, making it a straightforward choice for plumbers, pipefitters, and maintenance crews.
RIDGID 36900 1-Inch Die Head: Fast, Accurate Threading
RIDGID built the 36900 with durability in mind. The alloy body protects the dies and maintains alignment, so each thread comes out clean and uniform. The included 00-R alloy dies are ground for sharp, consistent cutting, and they handle both black pipe and galvanized pipe.
Compatible with RIDGID Power Drive and Ratchet Handles
The die head mounts on RIDGID power drive machines (such as 1224 and 1248 models) for machine threading, and it also works with the compatible RIDGID hand ratchet handles. If you're using a manual ratchet, confirm your handle has a 1-inch die head capacity.
Replacement Dies for the 36900
When the dies eventually dull, you can order a replacement set of 1-inch 00-R alloy dies from RIDGID. Installation is simple: remove the retaining ring, slide in the dies with the numbered side facing out, and reseat the ring securely.
