When should I use Thread Milling Inserts?

We recommend Solid Carbide Thread Mills as the first choice because they are much more efficient tools. In most cases, they will result in a lower cost per thread.

However, the advantage of an Indexable Thread Milling Cutter is that you can use inserts with different pitches and profiles on the same cutter body. This can be a good alternative if you only need to make a few threads.

· Solid Carbide Thread Mills are available up to 4,0 mm pitch.
· Thread Milling Inserts are available up to 6,0 mm pitch.
