Carmex Thread Mills Carbide Mini Type - Metric - M16, M18, M20 x 2 - MT7

Meet the Carmex Thread Mills Carbide Mini Type—a compact, high-performance threading tool built for metric threads. Designed for machinists and precision shops, it delivers fast, reliable thread milling for M16, M18, and M20 x 2 profiles with one versatile carbide tool.

• Thread size capability: supports M16, M18, and M20 x 2 metric thread profiles with a single tool, simplifying setup and reducing tool changes.
• Carbide MT7 sub-micron grade: engineered for exceptional wear resistance and finish when threading across materials, including tougher alloys.
• TiAlN multi-layer coating: a durable, multi-layer titanium aluminum nitride coating (ISO K10–K20) that reduces wear and extends tool life at high speeds.
• Through-flute coolant capability: coolant channels run through the flutes to reach deep holes, improving heat management and chip evacuation.
• 3–5 flute design: a multi-flute configuration that enables faster machining and smoother cutting action, shortening cycle times.
• Spiral flute geometry: designed for stable, continuous cutting with reduced vibration and chatter.
• Deep-hole threading efficiency: optimized geometry and coolant flow enable reliable threading in long, deep holes with consistent results.
• Internal and external threading: versatile tool capable of producing both internal and external threads with the same geometry and pitch range.
• Hard-material capability: suitable for machining hardened materials up to 45 HRc, expanding its use in demanding applications.
• Low cutting forces: short profile minimizes deflection and chatter, improving accuracy and reducing the risk of breakage.

This carbide mini-type thread mill is ideal for aerospace, automotive, and general engineering applications where precision thread milling in deep holes is required. Use it to quickly create clean, accurate threads in hard metals, reduce downtime with fewer tool changes, and achieve reliable results across a range of pitches and thread depths.
