Thread milling is a process of thread production by helical interpolation. It can and should be used in CNC machining centres and CNC lathes with powered tooling facilities.

Why choose thread milling?

Versatility ~ one cutter produces internal, external, right and left hand, all sizes and class of fit, all materials for any constant pitch

Consistency ~ selection of the correct cutter will produce repeated accuracy of size and quality, affected less by variations in material than other processes

Longest life ~ the process allows use of superior grades of HSS and carbide, which combined with its natural cutting action, results in significantly longer tool life.

Range of thread milling.
From 3mm upwards, however, generally from 4mm upwards as a standard. Any pitch can be produced

Designed to suit all applications, both colbalt carbide cutters / end mills are available.
