By Danford, Matthew D Tudor, Emily K

Emuge Corporation’s Shur-Thread GFI series of solid carbide thread mills is available with an internal coolant supply, which is said to eliminate waste and efficiently evacuate chips. The series offers “high confidence machining,” to 2 x D length of cut with an extended milling portion. The series’ design elements and grinding techniques enhance performance, versatility, reliability and ease- of-use, the company says. Featuring premium micro-grain carbide and TiCN-coated tools for long tool life, the thread mills are engineered with multiple spiral flutes to eliminate chatter. Also, a large cutter diameter with high profile correction ensures true-to- gage threads. To further enhance performance, an enlarged flute space provides efficient chip evacuation and an end mill-type shank with a clamping flat allows for secure toolholding.

The cutters produce threads for applications 1” and less in a wide range of soft and pre-hardened steels to 58 Rc, stainless steels, aluminum, cast iron, titanium, inconel and exotics.
