Thread Rolling


Thread rolling is the optimal method for producing uniform, smooth, and precise threads of superior physical quality. Rolling the material into a die, rather than cutting or shaving material away, is the more effective, efficient, and environmentally-friendly method of forming threads.


Advantages of Thread Rolling Over Thread Cutting


  • Reduced cost and waste from rolling the material to form the thread rather than cutting it away
  • Superior tensile and shear strength 
  • Increased resistance to fatigue failure
  • Greater accuracy on pitch diameter, thread angle, lead and taper over other processes
  • Greater ability to maintain accuracy of original setup during long runs
  • Smoother finish
