Very comprehensive video showing manual pipe threading technique. Well narrated with great camera angles. Much appreciated and caused me to like and subscribe. Good job, man.
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
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.
Thank you! I had no idea. I'm sure that it would be hard cutting a pipe that's already connected. It looked like it took some force. Thank you. I enjoyed the video. I subscribed.
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.
bravissimo eccellente video e spiegazione, anche io preferisco le lavorazioni degli impianti idraulici con canne in ferro zincato, mi da molta soddisfazione !! un saluto da roma 👋👍
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
Great video, nice camera shots and good explanations. Any advice on where to get replacement die heads? I wouldn't even mind paying a little more for a good/better one. My 1/2" needs replacing. I have the same Vevor/Harbor Freight manual ratchet as the video. Thanks!😊
Wonder if you could use those threader's to thread several inches of a pipe. Looking to make a home made mini tire changer. I would need to thread an 18" pipe for around 6 inches. I know these are meant to thread around 1 inch but I can't see why one couldn't keep cranking. Anyone know if that's doable?
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?
I'm trying to redo a small portion on my fire escape railing. Its black pipe. I know the store can cut my other pieces but im using your video to thread my existing pipe at the connection point
I have changed 3 times the cutting die on my Riged pipe threader with no good results.the thread on the pipes keep breaking off.I have done everything watching the videos as how to do it right way please advise what am I doing wrong
pretty good video, Good explanation of material and assembly, BUT you should reverse the thread cutting after a few cuts not after cutting most of the material.
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?
@@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 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.
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.
I am Aftab from Pakistan Domestic & Building Plumbing Works. Installation & Repairing LPG, Electrical, Manual Gryzers & Auto Washing Machine. My fix die is not working. Do you help?
@@Caliber8Tools what I was saying is just the thread angle between bspt and npt is different, have to make sure the thread of the fitting is matching with the standard thread you're going to use.. good video btw..

Glad it was helpful.
I started in the epoxy flooring business but gradually went into plumbing, gas lines, soldering, etc.. it's definitely fun and challenging
Like the pivot.

Can you do this to a pipe that is cross threaded?
This is the perfect place to learn
Appreciate you. Glad it helped.
Great video, brother !❤❤ yes, using your gloves would make a lot of sense.

Did you lubricate it with cutting oil while you were cutting?
why didn yu use the red cutter 1 inch that came with the system? Why? Cause the red ones dont work!
You have a point.

Thanks. Appreciate the feedback. You can find replacements on Vevor’s website.
Great job sir btw how about the inside thread how to make inside one? Plz can you share
I’ll work on that.

Hi, nice video
I have a question, the diameter of the 1 inch pipe tube was the inner diameter or the outer diameter ?
Inner.
Great video, thank you for sharing
Glad it helped.
Great video! I am new to this and I found an electric version that looks easier.
Definitely easier.

I have changed 3 times the cutting die on my Riged pipe threader with no good results.the thread on the pipes keep breaking off.I have done everything watching the videos as how to do it right way please advise what am I doing wrong
Are you applying enough cutting oil? What type of pipe are you cutting?
Are you using cheap import pipe that is under nominal diameter? You changed the dies, are you sure that you installed them correctly?
What brand pipe rachet did you use? Great video.
Wish I knew. Get back to you on it.
10:34 Brother, there is something you have overlooked that is very important, which is preventing leakage.
Ahh, leaks. Thanks for the heads up.
Can you tell me the brand of that tool
Not sure what brand this is, I looked trust me. However, there are a few online as I’m sure you’ve looked too. Search pipe threader.
pretty good video, Good explanation of material and assembly, BUT you should reverse the thread cutting after a few cuts not after cutting most of the material.
Good tip.
The power threaders don't reverse.
thanks for the help.
Glad it helped.
Thanks for your help,😍
Glad it helped.
Could you plz show with plastic pipe???
Really nice teaching, i learned, i liked and subscribed as well. 💯
Thanks, I will take your advice.
Good stuff buddy, thanks!
No problem. Glad it helped.
Before you go putting any of those fittings on there you need to put pipe dope or Teflon tape on the male threads.
Of course.
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?
After cutting yes. Not necessarily after threading.
@@Caliber8Tools
I am taking a Plumbing course. I am trying to learn as much as I can about this subject.
@@badger3184 Good trade to get into
@@Caliber8Tools
Some of the concepts are a bit confusing
@@Caliber8Tools
Do you have any advice?
Are there any Plumbing books I should read?
thank you very much,kind sir.
You’re welcome. Glad it helped.
Great video
Thank you.
Do you have a video on threading the inside?
@@yahbachirbenyisrael815 Not yet but great idea
Yeah, how I wish I could have those tools but I could never.
Never say never.
Perfect thank you!
Glad it helped.
Question? How do I do the maintenance of the pipe thread arm
Make sure no grease is left on it. Other than that try not to damage, bend or dent the metal.
@@Caliber8Tools Thank you very much for the information
Thanks DUDEZILLA for this!!

At 01:59 you say the dies correspond to the *inner* diameter of the pipe ?
Surely you mean the *outer* diameter ?
Pipes are measured by their inner diameter.
@@Caliber8Tools OK - didn't know that!
easy to understand
Glad it helped
I like this.
Glad it helped.
I would think a small bevel at the end of the pipe would help to getting the die on
Good tip.
How much is 1 set
Probably around $60.

Right that's from metal shop for boys in 1960's
welp bspt and npt is different angle though..
?
@@Caliber8Tools what I was saying is just the thread angle between bspt and npt is different, have to make sure the thread of the fitting is matching with the standard thread you're going to use.. good video btw..
