Metric Solid Carbide Triple-Flute Thread Mill for Steel

Fast and Reliable Threading in Tough Metals

Product Overview

The Metric Solid Carbide Triple-Flute Thread Mill is a robust, high-efficiency threading solution engineered for cutting internal and external threads in difficult-to-machine materials. Designed specifically for steel applications, this tool performs exceptionally well on 45# carbon steel, stainless steel (304/316), P20 mold steel, and cast iron, delivering both speed and precision.

Constructed from premium tungsten carbide, this thread mill features a three-flute cutting geometry that provides balanced cutting forces, superior chip evacuation, and higher feed rates compared to single-flute tools. It’s ideal for production threading, precision molds, and high-strength components, where consistency and tool life are critical.

 

Key Features

  • Thread Standard: Metric threads (M-series)

  • Material: Ultra-hard solid tungsten carbide for maximum durability

  • Flute Design: Triple-flute geometry for enhanced cutting speed and tool stability

  • Thread Types: Internal & external threads via helical interpolation

  • Excellent Chip Control: Suitable for long, blind, and deep-hole threading

 

Applications

  • hread milling in medium to hard steels, including:

    • 45# medium carbon steel

    • 304 & 316 stainless steels

    • P20 pre-hardened mold steel

    • Gray cast iron and ductile iron

    • Other alloyed and structural steels

  • Commonly used for:

    • Mold components

    • Machinery parts

    • Threaded holes in die casting or CNC milled parts

  • Compatible with CNC machining centers, tapping centers, and milling machines

  •  

Advantages

  • High-speed threading with excellent dimensional consistency

  • Clean thread finishes even in tough or abrasive steels

  • Strong and stable tool body resists deflection in high-feed operations

  • Reduced cycle time compared to single-flute alternatives

  • Ideal for mass production and precision applications alike

 

Usage Recommendations

  • Use helical interpolation G-code for thread paths (G02/G03)

  • Apply proper coolant or mist lubrication for longer tool life

  • Match RPM and feed rate to material type and thread pitch

  • For blind holes, ensure proper clearance for tool overrun
