■ Recommended Bored Hole Size Table for Taper Pipe Threads (PT) (refer to JIS B 0203)

<Remarks during tapping>

・PT internal threads have R design on their crests. The taps should cut threads with their thread root. ・ On thread having non-full threads, if you are going to cut effective thread length ℓ , use the tap of long type.

Remarks 3.Concerning bored hole shape, considering load
on taps, taper bored hole is recommended.
Remarks 4.When a prepared hole is tapered, use a
synchronized feed tapping machine.
Remarks 5.When applying taper bored hole, by

referring to values shown in columns ② · ⑦ ⑥〜⑧ , prepare the taper hole by using pipe ⑧

reamer (1/16 taper). By referring to values shown in columns ⑨ and ⑩ , select the drill

Technical Infdiameter before reaming by taking reamer's
margin into account.
Remarks 6.When preparing straight bored hole, by

referring to values shown in columns ⑨ and ⑩ , select drill diameter.
