Built from submicron-grade carbide and finished with an AlTiN+ coating, this tool delivers hardness and heat resistance needed for demanding threading operations on ferrous and non-ferrous materials. It runs on a 1\/4-inch shank, cuts a diameter of 0.18 inches, and provides a length of cut of 0.521 inches. Machinists and CNC operators in aerospace, automotive, and general manufacturing use this style of thread mill where tap breakage risk must be eliminated and thread quality must be consistent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tool is configured for internal threading applications using a CNC machining center capable of helical interpolation. The long-reach design makes it suitable for threading holes where axial clearance is limited or where a standard tap would not seat properly. At 20 TPI with a right-hand flute direction and three flutes, it produces clean UNC thread forms in through or blind holes. Typical users include journeyman machinists, CNC programmers, and tool and die professionals working in job shop or production environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid submicron carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance at elevated cutting speeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlTiN+ coating provides thermal protection and extends tool life in hard or abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree right-hand flutes for efficient chip evacuation during helical interpolation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-reach thread mill type allows access to recessed or deep-bore threading applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts 1\/4-20 UNC internal threads with a 0.18-inch cutting diameter and 0.521-inch length of cut\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design  -  suitable for flood or mist coolant delivery from the spindle exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style thread milling tool for CNC machining centers capable of helical interpolation, compatible with 1\/4-inch collet or end mill tool holders accepting a 1\/4-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThread mills require a CNC control with helical interpolation capability  -  verify G-code support before programming. Secure the 1\/4-inch shank in a precision collet or shrink-fit holder to minimize runout, which directly affects thread quality and tool life. Always confirm spindle speed, feed rate, and helical pitch in the CAM program before cutting; incorrect pitch programming will produce an unusable thread form. Do not use in manual milling machines or drill presses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4-20\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: UNC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 TPI\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.521 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Flutes\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlute Direction\u003c\/strong\u003e: Right Hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Mill Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Long Reach\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\u003c\/strong\u003e: AlTiN+\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: 0.25 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\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: TMI180-20HA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SCIENTIFIC CUTTING TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52103006781746,"sku":"TMI180-20HA","price":176.27,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/e837fe70f7c5fde04bfa0f7e55ac5aa9.jpg?v=1790070923","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/scientific-cutting-tools-tmi180-20ha-thread-mill-1-4-20","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
