Tapping threaded holes in a machined housing
THREADING & TAPPING · ALBANY, NY

Threads that fit
the first time.

Tapped holes and cut threads — metric, UNC, UNF, ACME and custom forms, internal and external.

Threads are often the feature that decides whether a part works. We tap holes and cut internal and external threads on our lathes and machining centers — standard or custom forms — and gauge every one before the part ships.

Tapped holes, done right.

Blind and through tapped holes in every material we machine — with thread milling for large, deep or critical threads where a tap isn’t the best tool.

Metric, UNC, UNF and ACME threads as well as custom profiles — single-point turned or milled, depending on the part.
