Product Overview
Produce precise British Standard threads with our Full Profile laydown threading inserts. Designed strictly for the 55° thread angle, these tools cover the essential BSW (Coarse), BSF (Fine), and BSP/G (Parallel Gas) standards.
Featuring a “Full Profile” geometry, these carbide threading inserts cut the thread groove and top the crest radius (R0.137P) in a single pass. This ensures the major and minor diameters are perfectly concentric and burr-free, meeting the strict requirements of pressure-tight pipe connections and British fasteners.
Key Features & Benefits
- Complete British Coverage: The ultimate solution for 55° parallel threading needs, from standard Whitworth bolts to parallel G-series pipe threads.
- The 16ER Standard: Our 16er threading inserts handle the most common pipe pitches (e.g., 11, 14, 19, 28 TPI), fitting standard ISO tool holders.
- Heavy Duty Sizes: For large threads (7 TPI down to 4 TPI), we supply robust 1/2″ (22mm) and 5/8″ (27mm) I.C. inserts to maintain rigidity.
- Directional Options: We provide comprehensive solutions, including left hand thread insert models (e.g., 16EL 11 W) for reverse turning or specific setups.
