Deep threading tools with a difference

11th May 2018, 10:35 • In Products

Tooling expert Walter GB has announced that its Paradur HT tap range has been extended to include a new HSS-E series for dimensions: UNC 1/4 UNC 1 for deep threads up to 3.5 x diameter, to add to the existing M4-M36 and M10 × 1- M33 × 2 series.

The new taps offer impressive cost-effectiveness and performance, with significantly reduced machinery downtime due to longer tool life, process security and effective chip control.

Featuring straight flutes, axial through-coolant and a TiN coating, the taps’ specially-designed cutting-edge geometry generates excellent chip breaking, even in long-chipping materials since the through-coolant flushes the short chips out of the blind hole. This elimination of ‘birds nesting’ effectively translates into high process reliability.

Ideal for machining ISO P materials with a tensile strength of 700-1400N/mm² (200-410 HB) and for ISO K materials, especially for GJS (GGG), the new tools are ideal for users in the energy sector as well as general mechanical engineering.
