Thread rolling is a cold forming process where rotating hardened steel dies are pressed against the surface of a cylindrical blank causing the thread profile to be created in the raw material. The cold forming process gives the thread a higher fatigue strength than a cut thread. The following link provides a more detailed description of the Thread Rolling Process.
Namco Tooling provides a range of products and services for Axial and Tangential thread rolling. Further details can be found below.
