Thread Forming with centertap

Thread forming with centertap offers the exact same advantages as flow punch forming. It is a chip- less process in which the material is rendered flowable and displaced from the thread root into the crests. It is similar in principle to the rolling of external threads. centertap is available for all common thread sizes.

 

 

Advantages of Thread Forming

Non-cutting manufacturing process

Reinforced orientation of the material fibers results in threads that can withstand high drawing forces

Highly accurate threads, therefore miscutting is not possible

Low wear after multiple connections due to increased hardness

3 to 10 times faster than thread cutting

Increased life due to special TiN coating

Reduced friction, less burr formation and scoring

Can be automated
