Straight Flute Thread Mill: 1/4-20, Internal, 3 Flutes, 1/4" Shank Dia, Powdered Metal MPN:TM180-20N

Straight flute thread mills are used by manufacturers, machine shops, and tooling companies to produce precision threads on internal surfaces of various materials such as metals, plastics, and composites. The 1/4-20 internal threads feature a 3 flutes design for greater chip removal and longer tool life, while the 1/4 shank diameter provides a firm grip in the lathe or milling machine spindle. Made from powdered metal, these thread mills offer excellent wear resistance and heat dissipation properties, resulting in smoother cutting and extended tool life. By using a straight flute thread mill, users can achieve high-quality thread profiles with greater precision and efficiency compared to traditional taps or die threads.
