Hardness●Pay attention to unevenness, and variation ofmaterials.
Shape
Workpiece Bored hole●Provide bigger bored hole.●Prevent slanting of hole.●Provide countersinking on the hole entrance.
Machine●Adjust a feed. ◎Feed according to pitch.
Jigs, Holders○Use tap holder of floating type.◎Prevent vibrating of axis of tap. ○Prevent centering-off with work piece. ●Use tap holder of floating type.
Cutting condition●Reduce cutting speed.
Lubricant On process●Use other cutting lubricant which prevents cold welding. ●Check the viscosity.
Selection◎Provide oxide surface treatment. ◯Use tap with oil hole.
TapDesign◯Provide small cutting angle. ●Adjust chamfer relief angle. ◎Check the width of thread margin.●Provide short thread length.●Reconsider number of flutes of tap.●Reconsider length of cutting chamfer.
Re-grind●Remove burrs on teeth after re-grinding. ●Provide proper land.●Provide precise re-sharpening.◎Care for vibration.

◯Pay attention to tapping ●If possible, use finer pitch tap or shorter tapping length. position and material thick-

●Prevent work hardening. ◎Provide deeper tapping hole (Blind hole).

●Provide countersinking on hole the entrance.

●Remove unnecessary chips ●Remove unnecessary chips during tapping. during tapping. ●Provide bigger space for chip disposal.

●Use Roll tap. ●Use Roll tap.

●Reconsider length of cutting chamfer. ●Use set tap(Serial or conventional). ●Adjust relief angle on cutting chamfer.

●Provide smaller cutting angle. ●Provide proper hardness.

●Provide shorter thread length to tap.
