Built from micrograin solid carbide and coated with TiCN, this tool delivers consistent thread quality in demanding materials where high-speed steel tooling falls short. The 4-flute, right-hand helical geometry produces clean thread forms with reduced cutting forces. A 5\/16-inch (0.3125 inches) shank diameter keeps the tool rigid in standard ER or milling chucks, and coolant-through capability helps evacuate chips and manage heat at the cutting zone. Machinists and tool-and-die professionals in production and job-shop environments install this tool in CNC machining centers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis thread mill is suited for internal threading operations in ferrous and non-ferrous materials where thread milling is preferred over tapping  -  particularly in difficult-to-tap materials, blind holes requiring controlled thread depth, or applications where a single tool must cover a range of thread fits. The 0.3010-inch cutting diameter allows climb or conventional milling strategies. The 0.7810-inch length of cut accommodates standard thread depths for 3\/8-16 applications, and the 2.4020-inch overall length provides clearance in most machining center setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrograin solid carbide substrate for wear resistance and edge stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTiCN coating reduces friction and extends tool life in abrasive materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e4-flute helical geometry for smooth chip evacuation and consistent thread form\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCoolant-through design directs coolant directly to the cutting edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRight-hand flute direction compatible with standard CNC milling center spindles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCuts 3\/8-16 UN internal threads to standard thread form in a single helical interpolation pass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for internal 3\/8-16 UN thread milling applications on CNC machining centers equipped with helical interpolation capability and a tool holder accepting a 0.3125-inch shank diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation and use of this thread mill should be performed by a qualified machinist or CNC programmer familiar with thread milling cycles. Secure the shank fully in a collet or milling chuck to the holder's rated grip depth before running. Verify CNC control supports helical interpolation and that the programmed cutting diameter offset matches the tool's actual cutting diameter before cutting to final size. Inspect the cutting edges for chipping or wear before each use and replace the tool at first sign of edge degradation to avoid thread-form errors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThread Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8-16\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: UN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTeeth Per Inch (TPI)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16\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\u003eCutting Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3010 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShank Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.3125 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength of Cut\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7810 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.4020 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Solid Carbide (Micrograin)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: TiCN\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoolant Through\u003c\/strong\u003e: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 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: VARGUS\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80308\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VARGUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67905999733042,"sku":"80308","price":268.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/2079778192a24603011961797e4b0877.jpg?v=1791162045","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/vargus-80308-thread-mill-3-8-16-internal-4-flute-solid-carbide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
