Solid carbide forming tap FormMax

monoblocfor steelwith radial coolant hole

Compared with the machining method, thread forming excels through its higher repeat accuracy and greater strength of the threads. The FormMax solid carbide thread former by LMT Fette is made of a newly developed ultra-fine grain carbide and is tailored precisely to customers’ needs thanks to its optimized geometry. Thread quality and tool life are increased even further, as the coated tool surface is especially smooth. Furthermore, higher circumferential speeds increase the efficiency of thread forming. The tool features integrated coolant channels. The standard program covers the dimensions M4 to M12 and MF8 x 1 to MF14 x 1.5 and is available ex-stock at short notice.
