RIDGID Pipe Threaders & Dies

RIDGID pipe threading machines, threaders and dies

RIDGID pipe-threading equipment includes hand-held power drives, threading machines, die heads and replacement dies. The correct combination depends on pipe material and size, the required thread standard, production volume and whether the work is carried out on site or in a workshop.

Machine model numbers are essential when selecting die heads, dies and accessories. Components that look similar may be made for a different head, thread form or pipe range. Threading oil, pipe support and correct preparation also affect thread quality.

What to confirm

• Pipe material and nominal size range
• Required thread form, such as the standard specified for the installation
• Threader or machine model and compatible die head
• Die type and size range
• Site portability or workshop production requirements

Which RIDGID pipe threader do I need?

Start with the largest pipe size, expected workload and working location. A portable power drive can suit site work, while a complete threading machine provides a different level of holding, cutting, reaming and production capability.

Are RIDGID threading dies universal?

No. Dies must match the die head, thread standard, pipe material and size range. Select them by the exact head and catalogue number.

How do I identify parts for a RIDGID 300, 1233 or another machine?

Use the full model designation, serial information where relevant and the part number from the machine's exploded diagram. Searching only for the model can return several generations or assemblies.

Why is threading oil important?

Correct threading oil helps cool and lubricate the dies and assists with chip removal. Use the oil and operating method specified for the machine, material and installation requirements.
