15. Bored hole size before tapping ( for thread cutting )
■ Recommended Bored Hole Size Table for Taper Pipe Threads (PT) (refer to JIS B 0203)
・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.

Note 1) Length toward End of Smaller Diameter from Basic Diameter Position
Remarks 1. Opening of Internal Thread (Face of
workpiece) is Basic Diameter Position.
When Threads havenon-Full Threads When Threads do not havethe non-Full ThreadsRemarks 2. Effective Thread Length has 2 types, with
⑥ ⑥ non-Full Thread Type and without non-Full
Basic Diameter Position Thread 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. W h e n applying taper bored hole, by
⑦ referring to values shown in columns ②·
⑧ ⑥〜⑧ , prepare the taper hole by using pipe
reamer (1/16 taper). By referring to values
shown in columns ⑨ and ⑩ , select the drill
diameter 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.
