Feb 1, 2021 · A rule of thumb is that the right tap drill is around 85% for coarse threads and 90% for fine threads which feature a higher number of threads per axial distance. In our case, the correct tap drill would be the closest to 3.4 mm from below, and that is the 3.3 mm or 0.13-inch tap drill.

The distance between the crest and root is called the thread height. The thread standards define the maximum thread height and are the same for metric and inch threads. In tapping, it is customary to express the thread height (Sometimes called thread depth) as the relation in percentage between the actual depth and the maximum depth. 1. A larger Th...

Forming Taps
Advantages of Forming Taps (Compared with cutting taps): 1. The cycle time is shorter due to higher cutting speeds. 2. Better uniformity and accuracy of the thread. 3. A higher strength of the thread (Due to internal stress created by the forming process). 4. No chips are formed, therefore there is never a chip evacuation issue. Disadvantages of Forming Taps (Compared with cutting taps): 1. They can be used only on ductilematerials such as aluminum, brass, copper, 300 series stainless steel,...
