Description

Lightest Enclosed Ratchet Threader Set for 1-1/4 to 2 Inch Pipe

Product Overview

The Reed DH84-7 enclosed ratchet threader set is the lightest enclosed drophead threader in Reed's DH84 series, weighing just 18.2 lbs. It covers three NPT pipe sizes (1-1/4, 1-1/2, and 2 in) with CNC-machined alloy steel threading dies seated inside malleable iron dropheads. This focused pipe threading tool suits crews that already have smaller dies or only need to thread larger pipe.

Key Features of Reed DH84-7 Enclosed Ratchet Threader Set

  • At 18.2 lbs (8.3 kg), the DH84-7 is a lightweight pipe threader that saves 4.6 lbs over the full-range DH84-4 set. Crews working above 1-1/4 inch carry only the heads they need.
  • CNC-machined alloy steel threading dies produce clean, consistent NPT threads on every cut. The dies sit factory-set inside each drophead, eliminating loose segments to align or replace.
  • Three enclosed dropheads cover 1-1/4, 1-1/2, and 2 inch NPT pipe. The enclosed design holds die segments in fixed position for straight, accurate threads from the first pass.
  • Malleable iron drophead bodies withstand repeated impacts on jobsites. The material resists cracking under the stress of ratcheting on larger-diameter pipe.
  • The set includes a ratchet handle and reinforced plastic carrying case. Everything needed to thread 1-1/4 to 2 inch pipe ships in one complete kit.

Choosing the Right Set: Reed DH84 Series Comparison

Reed's DH84 series includes four enclosed drophead threader sets for different pipe ranges. This Reed DH84 series comparison shows where the Reed DH84-7 enclosed ratchet threader set fits.

Set Range (NPT) Heads Included Weight
DH84-4 1/2" to 2" 6 22.8 lbs
DH84-5 3/4" to 2" 5 21.5 lbs
DH84-6 1" to 2" 4 20.0 lbs
DH84-7 1-1/4" to 2" 3 18.2 lbs

The DH84-7 makes the most sense when you already own a smaller ratchet pipe threader or only work with 1-1/4 inch pipe and above. If you need all sizes from 1/2 to 2 inch, the DH84-4 covers the full range in one kit.

Applications

The DH84-7 enclosed ratchet threader set handles field threading on 1-1/4, 1-1/2, and 2-inch NPT pipe. As a portable pipe threading tool, it covers fire sprinkler risers and branch lines, mechanical room connections, repair threading on existing pipe runs, municipal water and gas maintenance, and HVAC piping in commercial buildings.

At 18.2 lbs, this lightweight pipe threader fits into confined spaces and overhead work locations where heavier machines cannot go. It needs no electrical supply, making it practical for outdoor and remote jobsites. For powered threading in the shop, pair the dropheads with a Reed 601PD Power Drive.

Compatibility

The DH84-7 is an NPT ratchet threader, cutting standard National Pipe Taper threads compatible with all NPT fittings and valves used in North American plumbing and mechanical systems. All three dropheads fit the included ratchet handle and the Reed 601PD Power Drive for motorized threading.

Equipment Compatible Heads
Reed DH84-7 Ratchet Handle (included) 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 2 in
Reed 601PD Power Drive 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 2 in
RIDGID 11-R / R200 1-1/4 in only
Super-Ego 600 1-1/4 in only
Virax 1362 1-1/4 in only

Shops that own a RIDGID 11-R for smaller pipe can add Reed enclosed dropheads to cover 1-1/4 to 2 inch sizes without replacing their existing handle or ratchet assembly. If you only need one or two sizes rather than the full set, Cleanflow carries individual enclosed pipe threader dropheads sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes does the Reed DH84-7 enclosed ratchet threader set include?

The DH84-7 includes three enclosed dropheads for 1-1/4, 1-1/2, and 2-inch NPT pipe. Each drophead contains a complete set of alloy steel threading dies, plus the set includes a ratchet handle and carrying case.

What is the difference between an enclosed vs exposed ratchet threader?

An enclosed drophead threader holds all die segments in a fixed ring inside each head, keeping them aligned for straight threads. An exposed ratchet threader leaves die segments partially open, which can cause misalignment during difficult cuts.

How does the Reed DH84-7 vs RIDGID 11-R comparison break down?

The RIDGID 11-R covers 1/2 to 1-1/4 inch NPT pipe and weighs 16 lbs. The Reed DH84-7 covers 1-1/4 to 2-inch NPT at 18.2 lbs. RIDGID does not offer an enclosed ratchet threader set for pipe above 1-1/4 inch, so the DH84-7 fills that gap.

Is the Reed DH84-7 the best enclosed ratchet threader for 2-inch pipe?

For enclosed threading of 2-inch NPT pipe, the DH84-7 is the lightest option in Reed's DH84 series at 18.2 lbs. It includes the 2-inch head along with 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 inch heads. Crews needing only the 2-inch head can also purchase individual dropheads.

Can the DH84-7 dropheads fit other equipment like a power drive or ratchet pipe threader?

Yes. All three dropheads fit the Reed 601PD Power Drive for motorized threading. The 1-1/4 inch head also cross-fits RIDGID 11-R, Super-Ego 600, Virax 1362, and Rothenberger Super Cut equipment.
