1/2-28 Threading Alignment Tool (TAT) Die Starter for 7.62mm - Gunsmithing by NTC

For sale is a simple threading alignment tool (TAT), otherwise referred to as a die starter for 7.62 caliber rifles and 1/2"x28 TPI dies. The purpose of this tool is to squarely guide the die onto the barrel of the gun, eliminating the chance of crooked threading so you can attach muzzle brakes, flash hiders and other barrel mounted attachments requiring this pitch thread with ease. These TATs are approximately 1.5" long, the threaded portion is 1/2", the bore side is 1" long and is slightly under 7.62mm (as it is not uncommon to see bores that vary in size). They are also made of aluminum, not steel, as aluminum is more forgiving to the interior of the barrel.
