- Abstract
This paper demonstrates a method for determining the best tap geometry for tapping a particular material. In a statistically designed experiment the effects of the interactions between thread relief, rake angle, chamfer relief and tapping speed have been studied from the viewpoint of the enlargement cut on the pitch diameter, when tapping CS 1114 free-machining steel with 7/16-20. UNF bottoming taps.
