Carbide Taps: A Practical User’s Guide to When, What, How and Why

6/17/2021

0 Comments

 
Highly abrasive materials like cast iron, polymers, glass filled polycarbonates, and some cast aluminum are called “hard” materials for a reason. They’re hard to machine, hard on tool life and hard on production cycle times.

​How do you overcome the difficulties of making parts out of challenging raw stock? By using a tool that’s even tougher. Consider a change from steel taps to carbide taps.

When to Use Carbide Taps

While high speed steel (HSS) taps have a practical top limit of around 35-­40 HRC before tool life becomes severely limited, carbide is often used in materials with hardness up to 65 HRC (the ones that chew up HSS in no time).

​With the appropriate style for the application, tool life of carbide can be 5­20 times that of HSS, with the added bonus of superior accuracy.

What Carbide Taps to Use

That’s easy. GWS Tool Group carbide taps are American made from high-quality C2 micro-grain carbide by highly skilled machinists on state-­of-­the-art equipment, and are backed by decades of experience from our support staff.
Picture

​We offer carbide taps in UN and Metric sizes as well as straight and NPT/F Pipe and STI Standards. A wide range of styles and features are available, including straight flute, spiral flute, spiral point, and forming taps. For increased performance and life, we can customize tools with a full line of surface coatings such as TiN, TiCN, and TiALN.

How to Use Carbide Taps

Machining with carbide does come with some “do’s and don’t”. Hand­ tapping is generally not recommended. Rigid tapping and spot­-on alignment are critical to avoid breakage. Not to worry, however. Modern CNC equipment is ideally suited for carbide applications.

Here’s some additional tips. Coolant holes through the taps are an option for flushing chips out of the holes on the most difficult materials like some of the tougher stainless steels and space-­age alloys. Carbide STI (Screw Thread Insert) tapping of these materials has become commonplace in the aeronautical and aerospace industries.

The Why of Carbide Taps

CARB-I-SERT® CARBIDE INSERT TAPS
CARB-I-SERT® CARBIDE INSERT TAPS
Although initially more expensive than HSS taps, significant savings can be realized, especially in long-­run jobs. Higher cutting speeds, greater tool life, and reduced down­time from fewer tooling changes translate into reduced machining costs.

An alternative to costly larger sizes is our line of Carb­I­Sert® Taps. Solid carbide cutting surfaces are bonded onto a high-speed steel body to provide the best of both worlds; durability of carbide with the “forgiveness” of a steel body and shank.

So, don’t let difficult materials give you a “hard” time. Contact us anytime and put our carbide taps to work for you.

Tapping Tuesday: How can you Optimize a Tap's Chamfer Based on Your Application?

11/17/2020

0 Comments

 
Tap-Chamfer-Lenght-Point-Angle
How can you optimize a tap's chamfer based on your application?

Although North American Tool/ GWS  stocks many common special taps with standard chamfer lengths, they can design and manufacture a special tap for your application.

​Optimizing the chamfer results in, longer tap life, reduced tapping torque, better finish, and make the difference between success and failure.

As most of you know, the chamfer is the tapered section on the front of the tap. It includes the length, angle, radial relief, and point diameter.

​As the tap rotates and advances forward, each succeeding chamfered tooth enters the drilled hole and takes deeper and deeper cuts until the first full thread on the tap completes producing a full thread in the part. The balance of the tap’s threads within the length beyond the chamfer, do not do any cutting and just goes for the ride.
​
The amount of material removed by each chamfer tooth is called the chip load per tooth. The lower the chip load per tooth, the less torque is required, thus the less heat is generated, resulting in the benefits stated above.

​Another way to look at this is by the number of cutting teeth.

​The greater the number of cutting teeth, the lower the chip load per tooth. The number of cutting teeth is determined by multiplying the number of chamfered teeth times the number of flutes.

For example, a standard, 4 flute, ¼-20 UNC, plug (3 to 5 threads) tap has 12 to 20 cutting teeth (4 flutes X 3 threads =12 and 4 flutes X 5 threads 20).
​
Picture
Increasing the total number of chamfered teeth cutting, can increase tap life exponentially.

​The example above shows that a standard plug chamfer (3 to 5 threads) length, so on a 4 fluted tap, it will range between 12 to 20 cutting teeth. Because North American Tool/ GWS understands more is better, they make it a point to manufacture our taps with a chamfer length closer to maximum length, in this case, 5 threads. This is also true for the other standard chamfer lengths Bottom, Semi Bottom, and Taper. 

Although more is better, you may be limited to the length of chamfer due to the job requirements. We should also note that the incomplete threads created and left in the part by the chamfer are not too full thread height and will cause assembly interference, therefore they are not considered part of the required thread length.

As for manufactured specials, knowing your application requirements is necessary for us to design a tap that optimizes performance. For chamfer design, North American Tool/ GWS would need to know, tap drill size, tap drill depth, and full thread length requirement.

Knowing the tap drill size allows us to grind a chamfer with a point diameter that permits the tap to start cutting within the first half thread of entry. Because there are many factors that go into determining a tap drill size, there can be a relatively wide range of diameters. If the chamfer point diameter is smaller than the tap drill diameter, then the tap may not start cutting until the second chamfer tooth or beyond.

Using the same 4 flute, plug tap from the example above, in an application with a tap drill size larger than the chamfer point diameter, such that the tap does not start cutting till the 2nd chamfer tooth, will have a reduction in cutting teeth by 6 (1.5 threads X 4 flutes), or 30%. If the application is such that only a bottom chamfer (1 to 2 threads) can be used, and it is ground to the maximum length of 2 threads it will result in a reduction of cutting teeth from 8 (2 threads X 4 flutes) to 6 (1.5 threads X 4 flutes) or 75%.

Knowing the tap drill depth and full thread length requirement also allows us to design the maximum length chamfer for your application. This may take into consideration the overspin of the machine spindle, or room at the bottom of a blind hole so the tap does not run into any chips that may have made their way to the bottom.
Tap-Chamfer-Good-Not-Good
Although the information presented may be confusing, hopefully we have explained the importance of the chamfer, and the many considerations that go into its proper design.

So, if you are ready to increase tap life, reduced tapping torque, improve the finish, and make the difference between success and failure, give us a call with your application requirements.

Meet The Threadmills That Tame The Exotics

10/1/2020

Picture
If you deal with exotic alloys like Inconel, titanium, Hastelloy, etc., this article is written especially for you. Wise operators always select the correct tool for the job, avoiding the problems others face when they try to apply a general-purpose tool to a unique situation. In this article, we give you the information you need to select the proper tools for machining exotics. It will make your shop stand out from the competition since you will produce better results at a reduced cost.

The Hard Stuff
Exotic alloys are specifically designed for high-temperature applications (think aerospace), performance in corrosive environments (think underground), or to have the highest available strength to weight ratios (think earth-moving applications). The machinability of these materials is NOT the first consideration. As much as it would be nice from the machinist’s viewpoint to have an aluminum firewall in a helicopter, as the pilot or passenger you want a material that is strong and heat retardant.
​
Unique Challenges
When you’re working with exotics, it’s not just another day at the shop. On the positive side, their unique elemental compositions make them suitable for applications where traditional materials like alloyed steels or aluminum, would fail.

On the other hand, some of these materials exhibit undesirable (to say the least) behaviors like igniting spontaneously when machined and exposed to the atmosphere.

Also, these alloys are typically more expensive than traditional steels machined in most shops, so scrapped pieces are going to cost you big time.

Picture
The Answer
One day a new job order comes in and you are faced with threading these kinds of alloys. What’s an operator to do? Fortunately for you, North American Tool manufactures application-specific thread mills right here in the USA.

These tools are made from solid carbide and have been specially designed with exotic materials in mind. The results are longer more consistent tool life and the elimination of scrap due to tap failures in your parts.

Uniquely Crafted
North American Tool thread mills for exotic alloys are designed with only three teeth. This places less stress on the tool than a conventional thread mill with six, eight, or ten teeth engaged in the workpiece at the same time. Carbide thread mills nickel-based alloys are also made with left-hand helix and left hand-cut, which permit an operator to run from the top of the hole to the bottom and climb mill the threads.

​This will create a right-hand thread on the part. The threads are milled, rather than cut, typically producing a better quality thread in the part.

The thread mills are coated with AlCrN to give them greater heat and wear resistance in the high heat, higher abrasive applications that typically confront an operator when machining exotic alloys.


Exotic Material Experts
As well as thread mills, we are the industry leader in designing and manufacturing special taps for exotic materials as well. Thread mills are a good alternative tool to the special taps we design every day provided of course, you have a 3-axis CNC capable of the interpolation tool path needed for thread mills.


If you are working with exotic materials and need a thread mill or special tap, please contact us for a quote. We’d be happy to help.

0 Comments

 
Getting a good understanding of the definitions of the parts of a tap will help you to better understand the functions of  tap designs.  Special thanks to North American Tool for letting us share their short and simple explanations!
North American Tool Tap Nomenclature definitions
ALLOWANCE
Minimum clearance between two mating parts; the prescribed variations from the basic size.

ANGLE OF THREAD
The angle included between the sides of the thread measured in an axial plane.

AXIS

The imaginary straight line that forms the longitudinal
centerline of the tool or threaded part.

BACK TAPER
A gradual decrease in the diameter of the thread form on a tap from the chamfered end of the land towards the back which creates a slight radial relief in the threads.

BASE OF THREAD
The bottom section of the thread; the greatest section between the two adjacent roots.

BASIC SIZE
The theoretical or nominal standard size from which all variations are derived by application of allowances and tolerances.

CHAMFER
The tapering of the threads at the front end of each land of a tap by cutting away and relieving the crest of the first few teeth to distribute the cutting action over several teeth; Taper taps are chamfered 7-10 threads; plug tapsare chamfered 3-5 threads; semi-bottoming (or modified bottoming) taps are chamfered 2-2.5 threads; bottom-ing taps are chamfered 1-2 threads; taper pipe taps are chamfered 2-3.5 threads.
North American Tool Concentric Eccentric Con-Eccentric relief.
CHAMFER RELIEF
The gradual decrease in land height from cutting edge to heel on the chamfered portion, to provide clearance for the cutting action as the tap advances.

CREST
The top surface joining the two sides or flanks of the thread; the crest of an external thread is at its major diameter, while the crest of an internal thread is at its minor diameter.

CUTTING FACE
The leading side of the land in the direction of cutting rotation on which the chip forms.

FLUTE
The longitudinal channels formed in a tap to create cutting edges on the thread profile, and to provide chip spaces and cutting fluid passages.

HEEL
The edge of the land opposite the cutting edge.

HEIGHT OF THREAD
The distance, measured radially, between the crest and the base of a thread.

HELIX ANGLE
The angle made by the advance of the thread as it wraps around an imaginary cylinder.

HOOK
The undercut on the face of the teeth.
North American Tool Tap Hook
HOOK ANGLE
The inclination of a concave cutting face, usually specified either as Chordal Hook or Tangential Hook.
  • Chordal Hook Angle: The angle between the chordpassing through the root and crest of a thread form at the cutting face, and a radial line through the crest at the cutting edge.
  • Tangential Hook Angle: The angle between a line tangent to a hook cutting face at the cutting edge and a radial line to the same point.

INTERRUPTED THREAD TAP
A tap having an odd number of lands with alternate teeth along the thread helix removed. In some cases alternate teeth are removed only for a portion of the thread length.

LAND
The part of the tap body which remains after the flutes are cut, and on which the threads are finally ground. The threaded section between the flutes of a tap.

LEAD
The axial distance a tap will advance along its axis in one revolution. On a single start, the lead and the pitch are identical; on a double start, the lead is twice the pitch.

MAJOR DIAMETER
Commonly known as the “outside diameter.” It is the largest diameter of the thread.

MINOR DIAMETER
Commonly known as the “root diameter.” It is the small-est diameter of the thread.

PERCENT OF THREAD
One-half the difference between the basic major diameter and the actual minor diameter of an internal thread, divided by the basic thread height, expressed as a percentage.
North American Tool Basic Pitch Diameter angle of thread flank
PITCH
The distance from any point on a screw thread to a cor-responding point on the next thread, measured parallel to the axis and on the same side of the axis. The pitch equals one divided by the number of threads per inch.

PITCH DIAMETER

On a straight thread, the pitch diameter is the diameter of the imaginary co-axial cylinder...the surface of which would pass through the thread profiles at such points as to make the width of the groove equal to one-half of the basic pitch. On a perfect thread this occurs at the point where the widths of the thread and groove are equal. On a taper thread, the pitch diameter at a given position on the thread axis is the diameter of the pitch cone at that position.
North American Tool Allen Benjamin Positive Negative Neutral Rake Tap
RAKE
The angular relationship of the straight cutting face of a tooth with respect to a radial line through the crest of the tooth at the cutting edge.
  • Negative rake means that the crest of the cutting face is angularly behind the balance of the cutting face of the tooth.
  • Neutral or Zero rake means that the cutting face is directly on a radial line.
  • Positive rake means that the crest of the cutting face is angularly ahead of the balance of the cutting face of the tooth.

RELIEF (or Thread Relief)
The removal of metal from behind the cutting edge to provide clearance and reduce friction between the part being threaded and the threaded land.

ROOT
The bottom surface joining the sides of two adjacent threads, and is identical with or immediately adjacent to the cylinder or cone from which the thread projects.

SPIRAL FLUTE
A flute with uniform axial lead in a spiral path around the axis of a tap.

SPIRAL POINT
The angular fluting in the cutting face of the land at the chamfered end; formed at an angle with respect to the tap axis of opposite hand to that of rotation. Its length is usually greater than the chamfer length and its angle with respect to the tap axis is usually made great enough to direct the chips ahead of the taps cutting action.

STRAIGHT FLUTE
A flute that forms a cutting edge lying in an axial plane.

TOLERANCE
In producing a tap to given specifications, tolerance is:
(a.) the total permissible variation of a size;
(b.) the differ
ence between the limits of size.

Understanding Tap "Relief"

1/19/2020

2 Comments

 
Picture
Have you ever had a tapping job that was so troublesome that it caused heartburn or acid indigestion due to broken taps, bad finish, short tap life, over or undersized threads, etc.?

One way of avoiding or alleviating such a condition is accomplished with the use of a tap feature called “relief”. The definition of “relief” according to Marian Webster, is removal or lightening of something oppressive, painful, or distressing. For a tap, “relief” is the reducing of surface contact between the tap/tap feature and the part being tapped. Surface contact generates unwanted heat causing the issues mentioned above. Depending on the tap feature, relief is applied in a direction that is, radially, around the tap, or axially, along the axis of the tap.

All taps require a minimum number of features to have relief for it to cut, other reliefs are applied when the tapping application requires it. There are always tradeoffs when designing a tap, if a relief is applied or it’s amount is greater than necessary, it can cause the tap to run free or loose to a point it will cause heartburn or acid indigestion by producing issues mentioned above.
Relieved features that are always necessary on a tap are:
               
Chamfer, the tapered threads at the front of the tap. The crests or major diameter of the chamfered threads are radially relieved from the cutting edge to the heel of the land. Without this relief it would be like cutting a tomato with the non-sharp side of a knife, you can imagine the results of that. When looking at a taps chamfer, relief results in the crest width being wider at the cutting edge and narrowing towards the heel;
Tap Chamfer
Cut Tap Cutting-Edge Heel
Back Taper, a slight gradual reduction of the taps thread form including it’s major, pitch and minor diameters. It starts at the chamfered end of the tap and continues axially for the length of thread towards the shank end.

A typical diameter reduction amount for a standard tap is 0.005/0.0010 per inch. This amount may be increased for specially designed taps used for tapping materials that close in excessively on the tap.

The chamfer threads, as well as the first full thread of the tap, do the cutting and the balance of the non-chamfered, non-relieved threads, go for the ride helping guide the tap. Back taper prevents surface contact of the non-chamfered threads with the part material.
Major-Pitch Minor Diameter Tap
Additional features that can be relieved

Thread Relief, a radial reduction of the taps major and pitch diameters from the cutting edge to the heel. Relieving of the pitch diameter results in the minor diameter being relieved as well due to the manufacturing process whereas the major diameter is relieved separately. The application of the major or pitch diameter relief is normally applied separately but both can be done in combination. Relief of pitch diameter is the most common followed by the major diameter. Thread relief is applied when Back Taper alone is not enough to prevent surface contact when tapping materials that close in and squeezes the tap like stainless steel. The rate of reduction from the cutting edge to the heel is based on the material being tapped and, in some cases, the tapping application.

There are two common types of Thread Reliefs:
  • Eccentric, a radial relief in the thread form starting at the cutting edge and continuing to the heel.
  • Con-Eccentric, Radial relief in the thread form starting back of a concentric margin.
Thread-Relief-Eccentric diagram
Tap Thread Con-eccentric-Relief
The reliefs we have discussed so far are applied during the tap manufacturing and other than the chamfer relief cannot be added or changed. If you are in a bind and must ship parts but can’t wait for us to design, manufacture and ship the appropriate tap, there are additional types of relief that can be applied that may work in a pinch. Sometimes referred to as a poor man’s relief, something you may be capable of doing in your shop without too much trouble to get you through a quick job, or until properly designed tools arrive.
Tap Diagram Flatted-Grooved-Heel land
The application of relief types and amounts are dependent on many factors such as material properties being tapped, style and size of tap, how the tap is being used (hand, machine, etc.) and application requirements, etc. By providing us with as much information about your tapping application, it will enable our engineers to design a tap with the proper relief. This will help alleviate troublesome heartburn or acid indigestion.

First things first, what is the root of a tap?

The root of a tap is the surface at the bottom of the thread-form that connects adjacent thread flanks and is expressed as a width or as a diameter. The term root diameter is also called minor diameter, it’s one of those things, you say rain and I say precipitation, meaning the same thing...
