Looking for a quality Deburring External Chamfer Tool with a quick change 1/4" hex.
Don't need machinists quality, but don't want something cheap which doesn't work or last.

The price range seems to be anywhere from $5-100+
Main use will be for 3/8" all thread.

Something like this one:

What a great idea. I've always done it with 12" file with the all-thread secured to the pipe vise.

Can you run a nut on, cut, then back the nut off? Or do you need a clean appearance?

What are you using to cut the all thread? We have found the fastest way to cut threaded rod to length that requires no additional prep is to use a band saw. Specifically the battery powered portabands from hilti and dewalt. I can check on the blade pitch when I get to the office. Super fast and no additional prep work. You could also use a rod cracker, but that requires bending over unless the tool is bench mounted, and it does not work as well in lifts. Are you using a ground man to fab hangers with a setting crew on a lift or do you plan on fabbing the hangers in the lift? Pre setting all hangers in the run or setting hangers as you go?

I use the Titan, after cutting with a die grinder and cut off blade. Works great. You sure wouldn't want to run a nut all the way down and then cut it, would take to long.

Severance makes the good ones.

They have various shanks also.

Wanting a clean smooth finished product.

Milwaukee M12 bandsaw.

Works great, but I'm wanting a finished product with no sharp leading edge.

Was thinking about getting DeWalt's 20V threaded rod cutter. But it would be no diffferent, leaving behind the same sharp edge.

 
After I cut any threaded item (allthread, machine screw, etc), by whatever cutting method, I take it to my belt/disc sander. Using the 1" belt, I first polish the end by holding it 90 degrees to the belt. This also removes most of the burrs, if any. Then, holding it lightly about 45 degrees to the belt, spin the rod in my hand for a single circumference. It makes for a nice clean end and chamfer. The process takes only a few seconds. And the nut goes on with no further attention to the rod. I would consider buying a dedicated tool if I had a whole bunch to do, often.

Listen to Henryaz....I think the deburring tool in your link wouldn't work very well, it would probably grab your work piece. At the best I think it would leave a choppy finish.
By hand as Henryaz described would be my choice.

I've used this method with a bench grinder. Works well.

I'm looking for a simpler, cordless and non sparking method.
I've thought about trying the Milwaukee M12 right angle die grinder with a disc.
