Built from solid carbide and coated with AlCrN for heat and wear resistance, this tool handles the demands of tapered pipe thread milling on a wide range of workpiece materials. It features 4 flutes with a 0.495-inch cutting diameter and a 0.875-inch length of cut, making it well suited for full-thread engagement on standard NPT pipe thread sizes. With a 4-inch overall length and a 1\/2-inch shank diameter, it mounts directly in standard collet or milling chucks on CNC machining centers. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this cutter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis thread mill is used in precision machining environments where NPT pipe threads must be produced to specification in a single helical interpolation pass. It is appropriate for both production and job-shop settings requiring external and internal 1\/2-14 NPT thread forms. The 14 teeth-per-inch geometry matches the NPT standard thread pitch. It is a solid-carbide tool intended for use in CNC machining centers capable of helical interpolation, and it performs in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where AlCrN coating provides a thermal barrier at the cutting edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts 1\/2-14 NPT threads in both external and internal configurations in a single tool\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSolid carbide construction for rigidity and wear resistance in demanding machining applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlCrN coating provides high-temperature oxidation resistance and extended tool life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4 straight flutes with 14 TPI geometry matched to NPT thread standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.495-inch cutting diameter with 0.875-inch length of cut for full NPT thread engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo coolant-through design — suitable for flood or mist coolant delivery from the exterior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for CNC machining centers capable of helical interpolation; produces 1\/2-14 NPT external and internal threads.

Secure the 1\/2-inch shank in a properly sized collet or end mill holder and verify runout before threading operations. Program helical interpolation at the correct thread pitch for NPT 1\/2-14 geometry. Never run thread mills in manual or non-interpolating modes, and always verify spindle speed and feed rate against the tool manufacturer's cutting data recommendations for the workpiece material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2-14\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: NPT\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: External and Internal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14\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: 0.495 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut (LOC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length (OAL)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 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: AlCrN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStaggered Tooth\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.35 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\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: SECO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 17004493\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SECO TOOLS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562371416370,"sku":"17004493","price":485.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/f3e6c3ff5b2712c699f41e8564823e69_7eafd23e-37a3-4f49-8b88-fbcf549dd473.jpg?v=1786475863","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/seco-17004493-thread-mill-1-2-14-npt-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
