Hardness
Shape
Workpiece Bored hole∙ Provide bigger bored holes.∙ Provent slanting of hole.∙ Provide countersinking on the hole entrance.
Machine∙ Adjust the feed. ∙ Feed according to pitch.
Jigs, Holders∙ Use fl oating type holder.∙ Prevent vibration of tap. ∙ Provent centering-off with work piece. ∙ Use fl oating type holder.
Cutting condition∙ Reduce cutting speed.
Lubricant∙ Use lubricant which prevents cold welding. ∙ Check the viscosity.
On process
Selection∙ Provide oxide surface treatment. ∙ Use tap with oil hole.
Tap Design∙ Provide small cutting angle. ∙ Adjust chamfer relief angle. ∙ Check the width of thread margin.∙ Provide short thread length.∙ Reconsider number of fl utes to tap.∙ Reconsider length of cutting chamfer.
Regrind∙ Remove burrs on teeth after re-grinding. ∙ Provide proper land.∙ Provide precise re-sharpening.∙ Avoid vibration.
