FAQ

Q1: Why use micro thread mill instead of micro tap?
A1: Micro taps are extremely thin and break easily, causing high scrap rates. Micro thread milling features low cutting force, no breakage risk, higher precision and better surface finish, ideal for tiny high-precision threads.

Q2: Can it process both internal and external micro threads?
A2: Yes. One micro thread mill can complete both internal and external tiny threads, greatly reducing tool inventory.

Q3: What is the smallest thread size available?
A3: We support ultra-small threads starting from M1.0, with custom micro pitches available on request.
