Review on πŸ”§ Enhance Precision with Hanson 9743 Flat Die for Smoother Results by Jose Strong

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reconditioned tractor wheel studs no problem

Unfortunately my Kubota tractor would occasionally have both front wheels fall off while the tractor was in motion. This makes the rivets look as messy as you might think. Being metric, it was difficult to swap out the studs in the US - simply because the parts are not available. So the remaining option was to try to rehabilitate the stud farms. I asked this channellock matrix to do it. Excellent. All 12. Many were so badly damaged that new threads were simply cut into the shattered metal - others needed only light to moderate thread correction. But for 12 consecutive spikes this die held up well and cut smooth, light and accurate. It was a good price but not a cheap product. For my use as described it was perfect.

Pros
  • Packing length 1cm
Cons
  • Large and bulky
