Is it possible to process castings (FC) with A-SFT?
For threading castings, hand Tap is recommended.
When casting is performed with A-SFT, it may not be discharged properly because it will be fine, sandy chips instead of the connected chips when processing general steel.
Spiral Tap has a twisted groove, which narrows the groove space compared to hand Tap . In addition, the cutting edge is also sharp, so it tends to wear out quickly. Castings are materials that are susceptible to tool wear.
Therefore, we recommend the Hand Tap , which has a straight groove, has a lot of space, and is advantageous for cutting edge wear.
* Especially when efficiency and durability are required
There are a hand- Tap shape, carbide coating, oil-hole A Tap series "A-CHT, A-CSF".
