Frequently Asked Questions - KT1103A Vevor

What are the available thread sizes for this threader?

The Vevor KT1103A threader comes with three sets of dies for NPT threads: 1/2 inch (14 threads per inch), 3/4 inch (14 TPI), and 1 inch (11.5 TPI).

How to select the right die for my pipe?

Check the outer diameter of the pipe and choose the die with the matching inner diameter. The sizes are stamped on the outside of each die. Place the back of the die against the end of the pipe to confirm the fit.

How to reverse the ratchet rotation direction?

Pull the reverse button, turn it 180 degrees until the arrow points toward the handle, then push it back in place. This reverses the ratchet direction to disengage the die after threading.

What type of oil to use for lubricating the pipe and dies?

Use a thread cutting oil (not included). Apply generously to the pipe end and die threads before and during operation to avoid overheating and prolong blade life.

Can I use this threader on stainless steel pipes?

No, the manufacturer does not recommend use on stainless steel. It is designed for copper, aluminum, galvanized pipes, and iron.

How to assemble the handle with the ratchet holder?

Insert the threaded part of the handle tube into the ratchet holder and screw it tightly. Make sure the reverse button is fully seated in the holder's grooves.

What to do if the die blades are worn?

Worn blades produce poor quality threads. Replace them with original parts by contacting a qualified technician or Vevor customer service.

How to secure the pipe before threading?

Use a vise (sold separately) to hold the pipe firmly. Make sure the pipe end is cut cleanly and square.

How to clean and store the threader after use?

Wipe the surface with a damp or dry cloth. Clean the dies and lightly lubricate them. Store the tool in its case, in a dry place, out of reach of children.

Operating Instructions

NOTICE: Make sure the pipe end and threads of the Die are sufficient, oiled at all times. Otherwise, Die life will be shortened and the threads be rough. See Figure A.

1. Assemble the Handle and insert the threaded portion of the Handle Tube in Ratchet Holder.
2. Determine the size of the pipe to be threaded.
3. Pick the appropriate Die to be used. Die sizes are stamped on the outside Die.
4. Place the rear of the Die next to the end of the pipe to be threaded. Verify inside diameter of the Die matches the outside diameter of the pipe.
5. Insert Die into Ratchet Holder. It is a forced fitting, and once the Die is in Ratchet Holder, it may require light tapping with a wooden mallet to remove
6. Fill the Oil Can with Thread Cutting Oil (sold separately). Keep it nearby during threading operation.
7. Make sure that the pipe to be threaded is properly secured in a vise (sold separately), and make sure the pipe end to be threaded is cut cleanly and square.
8. Make sure that the Reversing Knob is seated all the way down into the Ratchet Holder and its arrow is pointing away from the handle.
9. Slide the pipe guide at the end of the ratchet holder through the pipe. With pressure applied to the front end of the die, use the handle to rotate the ratchet support to engage the die to the pipe end. See Figure B. Continue operation until the desired thread length is achieved.
10. Stop threading when the end of the Die is flush with the end of the pipe. To disengage the Die after threading is complete, pull out the Reversing Knob, turn it 180 degrees until the arrow points in the opposite direction (toward the handle), and drop it back into place. This will reverse the Pawl.
11. Use the Handle to rotate the Ratchet Holder in the opposite direction until the Die disengages fully from the pipe end. Maintain control of the Ratchet Holder as the Die slides off the pipe. Be careful not to damage newly cut threads.
12. Clean any spilled oil off the ground. Clean the threader and store it indoors in a dry, clean area.

Figure B

Cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication

For cleaning, wipe the surface with a damp (not wet) cloth or wipe with a clean lint-free cotton cloth.

During use, ensure that pipe end and die threads are oiled with Thread Cutting Oil (not included) at all times.

Worn die blades will result in poor thread quality. If the blade is worn, replace it with a qualified technician.
