It produces M18 x 1.50 threads and is coated with TiAlN for extended tool life in ferrous and hardened materials. The 4-flute, right-hand helical design provides efficient chip evacuation during thread milling operations on CNC machining centers. With a 0.49-inch cutting diameter and 1.25-inch length of cut, it handles the full thread depth required for M18 applications. This tool is used by machinists and tooling technicians working in precision manufacturing, job shops, and production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis thread mill is suited for metric thread applications requiring M18 x 1.50 pitch in both through and blind-hole configurations. Its ability to cut internal and external threads with one tool reduces tooling inventory and changeover time. The minimum nominal diameter of 0.7087 inches (18.00 mm) defines the smallest bore it can enter for internal threading. Right-hand flute direction is standard for conventional CNC thread milling programs. It is appropriate for use in steel, alloy steel, cast iron, and similar materials where TiAlN coating provides heat and wear resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCuts M18 x 1.50 metric internal and external threads with a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and dimensional stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiAlN coating provides elevated heat resistance and extended tool life in ferrous materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 right-hand helical flutes for efficient chip evacuation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.5-inch shank diameter for secure collet or end mill holder retention\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through requirement  -  compatible with flood or external coolant delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for CNC machining centers using standard 0.5-inch collet chucks or end mill holders.

Confirm spindle speed, feed rate, and helical interpolation parameters in the CNC program before running the tool. Secure the 0.5-inch shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder torqued to the holder manufacturer's specification. Inspect the cutting edges for damage before each use and replace the tool if chipping or coating breakdown is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: M18 x 1.50\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: Metric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal and External\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.50 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.4900 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.2500 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Nominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7087 inches (18.00 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5000 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiAlN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TM18150\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"ALLIED MACHINE AND ENGINEERING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51741304815922,"sku":"TM18150","price":424.76,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/341709a71f91567d358164f4c5c375cb_8da0a0b5-5e09-4aa8-9b56-c79f0138cf1a.jpg?v=1788830663","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/allied-machine-tm18150-thread-mill-m18x1-50-4-flute-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
