Goliath B71FG N0.6 x 0.53mm BA Fluteless | AIMS Industrial

Applications

• Materials with a minimum elongation of 5% and a tensile strength no greater than 1,000 N/mm2 are suitable for thread forming
• British Association thread form - in 1884 the British Association for the Advancement of Science adopted a thread form and series, primarily for use in precision equipment
• Manufactured from HSS this fluteless tap is designed for use in medium tensile materials and is for hand or general machine use

Specifications

• The thread is formed by the tap in the ductile material creating threads that have a smoother surface and greater tensile strength under dynamic stress than cut threads
• HSS-Co (Cobalt) Bright Finish BA Fluteless Machine Tap
• HSS Fluteless (Roll Form) Taps
• Fluteless taps are also referred to as "Roll Form" or "Thread Flow" taps
• Unlike standard taps, fluteless taps create internal threads by pressure deformation, rather than by material removal
• It is essential to use a high quality lubricating fluid when using fluteless taps
• Like the Whitworth thread, it has a rounded root and crest, but the included angle is 47.5°
• IMPORTANT - Fluteless Taps use different tapping drill sizes than standard taps
