    Thread Mills

    Cut a range of thread sizes with a single tool. These thread mills can also produce both right-hand and left-hand threads. All are made of solid carbide with an aluminum-titanium-nitride (AlTiN) coating, so they have high strength and excellent wear resistance, even when cutting hard and abrasive material. Use them in a CNC machine that allows helical interpolation.
    When used for internal threading, thread mills can create threads of any size equal to or greater than the minimum size listed. They leave space in the hole for chips to fall, and a broken thread mill can fall into the hole without damaging the workpiece.
    For Internal Threads (UNC, UNEF, UNF, UNJ, UNS)

    Thread mills cut internal UNC, UNEF, UNF, UNJ, or UNS threads, but the threads they create have a fixed pitch.

    Thread mills have a single cutting point that cuts internal/external UNC, UNEF, UNF, or UNS threads in a range of different pitches on both the inside and outside of the workpiece. They can also cut internal UNJ threads in a range of different pitches.
