These are 14x1 LH original thread for AK rifles. Thread all of your preban barrels with this 14 x 1 LH DIE. This can also be used on Saiga 7.62X39, 223 and 5.45X39. 0.551" to 0.571" O.D. barrels. Die Diameter is 1.5". Needs 1.5" die handle. Barrel shroud must be cut off first on Saiga rifles.
We highly recommend the Thread Alignment Tool(TAT) and Die Stock Handle to to make threading your barrel as easy as possible and to ensure the threads are straight not crooked. TAT and Handle sold seperately
Dies do not have any warranty. If you over tighten the die holder you can crack the die. If you do not use oil you can break cutting teeth from the die.
I bought a cheap Chinese die from another vendor and spent hours just trying to get it to cut. I then bought the correct die fron CSS and had the job done within an hour.

Excellent Quality Die
No issues using this die. I like that it has the threaded fit adjuster. Fit well and worked well in the die handle to thread the barrel on my Russian SKS. Threaded with no pre-prep to the factory .555" diameter barrel.

Barrel Die
Great little die. Did its job exactly how it was supposed to, made from quality materials.
