| Version | Property | Suitable materials |
|---|---|---|
| HSS | high speed steel, milled profile | structural steel, non ferrous metals, plastic |
| HSS-G | ground thread profile | steel up to medium strength, better thread quality |
| HSSE | with cobalt, higher hot hardness | high alloy and stainless steel |
| HSSE-VAP | steam treated surface | tough long chipping materials, austenitic stainless steel |
Typical applications
Typical applications: recutting damaged external threads on bolts and threaded rod; making threaded parts in equipment and fixture building; cutting threaded rod to length and recutting it during assembly; calibrating threads after galvanising or painting; pipe threads on installation and compressed air lines.
