Custom Drill Thread End Mills Reference

Thread Milling Cutter Precautions:

  • Pre-drilling: Pre-drilled holes should be larger than the diameter of the thread milling cutter.
  • Feed (Fz): Usually 0.05~0.3 mm/rev, depending on material softness or hardness.
  • Layered processing: A single cutting depth of ≤1.5 times the pitch is recommended to avoid overload.

Selection of Thread Milling Cutter:

  • For mass production of the same specification: It is recommended to use a full thread milling cutter or a Tri form thread milling cutter.
  • Small batch production with different specifications: Use a single form thread milling cutter.
  • Select the coating according to the material to be processed:
    • Steel / cast iron: TiAlN coating (wear-resistant, high-temperature resistant).
    • Stainless steel: TiCN coating (anti-sticky chips).
    • Aluminum: Uncoated or nano-coated (reduces the coefficient of friction).
