Built from submicron-grade solid carbide, it delivers the rigidity and edge retention needed for precision threading in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. The tool features 4 straight flutes, a 0.290-inch cutting diameter, and a bright uncoated finish. With a 3\/16-inch shank diameter of 5\/16 inches and an overall length of 3.5 inches, it fits standard CNC machining center tool holders. It is intended for use by machinists and CNC operators running thread milling cycles on mills with helical interpolation capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis thread mill is suited for production and job-shop environments where thread milling is preferred over tapping for tight-tolerance internal threads. The 3\/8-24 UNF thread form is common in aerospace, automotive, and precision mechanical assemblies. With a length of cut of 0.809 inches and 24 teeth per inch, the tool can produce threads in through-holes and blind holes where conventional taps may not be practical. It is installed in CNC machining centers by toolroom machinists and CNC programmers using standard ER or side-lock collet holders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStraight flute geometry for internal 3\/8-24 UNF thread milling in a single pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubmicron-grade solid carbide construction for superior wear resistance and edge sharpness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 flutes with 24 teeth per inch for consistent thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e0.290-inch cutting diameter with 0.809-inch length of cut for shallow to moderate thread depths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright uncoated finish suitable for a wide range of workpiece materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design; external coolant or cutting fluid applied at the spindle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style thread milling tool for CNC machining centers capable of helical interpolation, producing internal 3\/8-24 UNF threads with a minimum nominal diameter of 3\/8 inch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThread mills are installed and removed by qualified machinists following standard CNC tooling procedures. The spindle must be confirmed stopped and the machine placed in an E-stop or tool-change state before handling. Secure the 5\/16-inch shank in a properly sized collet or tool holder torqued to the holder manufacturer's specification. Verify the helical interpolation parameters in the CNC program match the 3\/8-24 UNF thread pitch before running the cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.290 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.809 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Nominal Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Grade\u003c\/strong\u003e: Submicron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Bright\/Uncoated\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStaggered Tooth\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23242117\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: TM.290-24\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51972424040754,"sku":"TM.290-24","price":231.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/eacf5db1cf3e473f46382030a556e98c.jpg?v=1789968378","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-tm-290-24-thread-mill-3-8-24-unf","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
