Anvil selection for symmetric threading profiles

The table below defines the recommended insert inclination angle (β) and anvil selection according to the helix angle (φ) for single-start threading and the lead angle (φL) for multi-start threading, depending on the threading turning method for machining the following symmetric threading profiles:

  • partial profile threading with an angle profile of 60°, 55° only
  • full profile threading according to ISO, UN, Whitworth, NPT, BSPT, Trapeze, ACME, RD standards only
