Thread cutting demands particularly accurate geometry because pitch, thread profile, tolerance and cutting-edge condition all directly influence the quality of the finished internal thread.

uses a relatively long cutting chamfer of approximately \u003cstrong\u003e3.5 to 5 thread pitches\u003c\/strong\u003e. Instead of the full thread profile engaging the workpiece immediately, the chamfer progressively introduces the cutting teeth into the material. This distributes the cutting load across several teeth and is particularly suited to through-hole tapping, where chips have space to move ahead of the cutting action and exit the hole.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"info-products\"\u003e\r\n\u003ch3\u003eUnderstanding ISO2 (6H) thread tolerance\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISO2 (6H)\u003c\/strong\u003e identifies the thread tolerance produced by the tap.
