SELF-LOCK Threading Tools Line for Safety Critical Applications



EMUGE-FRANKEN USA has announced the expansion of its SELF-LOCK Threading Tools Line with additional THREADS-ALL/AERO thread mills, including 14 new 2xD sizes from #5-40 to 1"-12, and offered for the first time, 30 3xD sizes ranging from #2-56 to 1"-12. Also, the EMUGE High Ramp Precision Thread Gauges Line for gauging EMUGE SELF-LOCK thread profiles has also been expanded.

EMUGE THREADS-ALL/AERO SELF-LOCK thread mills feature helical flutes, multiple teeth, and TIALN-T46 coating, producing self-locking threads that are suited for demanding industry applications, such as aerospace where nickel alloys, titanium, and stainless steel are the norm. A unique design enables three tooth pitches to simultaneously rough and finish-cut threads, increasing tool life and reducing cycle times, the company reported.

"Offering a proven thread design that has been successfully working in thousands of safety critical applications, we are pleased to provide a substantially broadened line," said Marlon Blandon, Thread Milling Product Manager, EMUGE-FRANKEN USA. "For high-stress situations, SELF-LOCK produces an internal thread that yields a self-locking screw connection that can be used repeatedly. The special profile of the SELF-LOCK thread allows an even distribution of stress over the entire thread length, eliminating slippage."

Other EMUGE SELF-LOCK products include UNC and UNF Cut Taps, UNC and UNF Form Taps; Metric Cut Taps, Metric Form Taps and Metric Thread Mills, in addition to a full line of GO/ NO-GO Thread Gauges.
