Tapping Tools Eliminate Secondary Threading Operations
Wilson Tool Intl. booth 6131
New tapping tools to be displayed by Wilson Tool save time and help fabricators achieve their lean-manufacturing goals by elim- inating secondary threading operations. Wilson tapping tools for punch presses form threads with a higher tensile
strength than those cut by conventional
machine tapping, and allow fabricators to tap
a threaded hole with every machine stroke,
at up to 200 holes/min. Tools are available
for most brands of turret-style punch presses.
