Precision Thread Rolling Die features accurately ground thread forms with tightly controlled flank angles and root contours. This precise geometry facilitates uniform plastic deformation of the workpiece material, producing threads with exact pitch, lead, and flank integrity. The controlled metal flow reduces surface microcracks and residual stresses, resulting in enhanced fatigue resistance and consistent dimensional accuracy critical for high-performance assemblies.

Material of Die

High-Speed Steel (M2/M35), Tungsten Carbide (Grade K10/K20), Powder Metallurgy Steel (ASP 30)

Product Description

Precision Thread Rolling Die utilizes tool steels such as AISI D2 or high-speed steels with cryogenic treatment or tungsten carbide substrates to withstand repeated cyclic loads. Surface engineering techniques like physical vapor deposition (PVD) coatings—TiN, TiCN, or diamond-like carbon—significantly improve hardness and reduce friction coefficients. These measures effectively limit abrasive and adhesive wear mechanisms, maintaining dimensional stability and prolonging tool life under high production volumes.

Hardness (HRC)

HSS – 62–65 HRC, Tungsten Carbide – 80–85 HRA, PM Steel – 60–64 HRC

Surface Finish

Ra ≤ 0.2 µm (Thread Profile), Ra ≤ 0.4 µm (Non-Contact Areas)

Tool Life Expectancy

HSS – 50K–200K cycles, Carbide – 500K–2M cycles (for mild steel)

Applicable Material for Rolling

Low-Carbon Steel (AISI 1018), Stainless (303/304), Aluminum (6061), Brass (C36000)

Certification Standard

ISO 9001, DIN 103 (Thread Standards), ISO 10896 (Rolling Dies), ASME B1.13M (Metric Threads)

Technical Advantages

Precision Thread Rolling Die is engineered with optimized thread lead angles and radii to minimize rolling force requirements. This reduction in forming force decreases spindle load and power consumption during operation, enabling faster rotational speeds without compromising thread quality. The improved efficiency supports higher production rates while preserving machine tool integrity and process stability.

Precision Thread Rolling Die is manufactured to precise tolerances accommodating a wide range of thread forms, including metric, UN, ACME, and special profiles. Material-specific die designs account for varying workpiece hardness, ductility, and grain structure to optimize metal flow during cold forming. Custom tooling addresses complex thread geometries and dimensional constraints, ensuring proper material displacement for diverse materials such as stainless steel, titanium, and aluminum alloys.

Minimizing Process Variability and Scrap

Precision Thread Rolling Die maintains geometric precision through advanced CNC grinding and quality control systems, reducing dimensional drift during operation. Stable die profiles prevent irregular thread formation and minimize microstructural inconsistencies in rolled threads. The consistent tool condition lowers process variability, which directly reduces scrap rates and improves repeatability across large production batches.

Precision Thread Rolling Die incorporates materials and heat treatment processes that optimize thermal conductivity and minimize expansion during operation. This thermal stability preserves die geometry under cyclic thermal loads generated by friction and deformation, ensuring consistent thread accuracy and preventing premature tool distortion over extended production cycles.

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How does Frigate ensure dimensional accuracy in Precision Thread Rolling Dies?

Frigate employs advanced CNC grinding machines with real-time feedback control to maintain strict dimensional tolerances. Each die undergoes precision inspection using coordinate measuring machines (CMM) to verify thread profile accuracy. Material selection and heat treatment processes are tightly controlled to prevent deformation. This comprehensive approach guarantees dies consistently produce threads within specified tolerance limits.

What materials does Frigate use for manufacturing Precision Thread Rolling Dies?

Frigate primarily uses high-grade tool steels such as AISI D2, M2, and tungsten carbide for die manufacturing. These materials are chosen for their high hardness, wear resistance, and ability to withstand cyclic loading. Frigate applies cryogenic treatment and surface coatings like TiN to further enhance durability. Material choice is tailored based on client production requirements and application environments.

How does Frigate address die wear during high-volume thread rolling production?

Frigate integrates advanced surface engineering, including PVD coatings, to reduce friction and adhesive wear on die surfaces. Regular monitoring of die condition allows timely maintenance or regrinding to restore profile integrity. The use of wear-resistant substrates and optimized die geometry also contributes to extended service life. This results in lower downtime and consistent thread quality during long production runs.

What customization options does Frigate provide for Precision Thread Rolling Dies?

Frigate offers custom die designs to accommodate a wide range of thread forms, pitches, and materials. Engineering teams work closely with clients to tailor thread profiles for specific mechanical or environmental requirements. Frigate can adjust die hardness, coating types, and heat treatment processes based on application needs. This flexibility ensures optimal performance for diverse manufacturing processes.

How does Frigate maintain process stability with Precision Thread Rolling Dies?

Frigate uses precision grinding and quality assurance systems to minimize geometric variation in dies. Process control includes monitoring rolling forces and thread quality during production. The dies’ thermal and mechanical stability reduces dimensional drift under operational stresses. These measures collectively improve repeatability and reduce scrap rates for clients.
