Tapping – Challenge Inconel 718

Nickel-based alloys are one of the most difficult materials to process in machining. REIME NORIS, as a manufacturer of tools for threading, offers specially developed taps for the widely used Inconel 718 alloy for the production of blind holes up to 1,5xD.

The tough super alloy Inconel 718 features extremely high strength and extraordinary high corrosion – and temperature resistance.

Because of these properties, the material is often used in aerospace applications, where highest safety requirements are necessary for process reliability of thread production.

To meet these special requirements, REIME NORIS has developed a tap which, thanks to the use of powder metallurgical substrate (HSSE-PM) and a specially adapted cutting and clearance geometry, is convincing with extraordinary performance and highest process reliability. A PVD-TICN coating protects the cutting edges from abrasive wear and cold pressure weldings, while providing long tool life.

With over 100 years of experience in the production of threading tools and the use of state-of-the-art production technologies, REIME NORIS guarantees superior quality and performance for all its products.
