Metric tapping speeds and feeds calculatorapp

Tapping speed refers to the rate at which a tap or die cuts threads into a material in machining processes. It is usually measured in revolutions per minute (RPM). The appropriate tapping speed depends on several factors including the type of material being tapped, the tap size, and the type of tap being used. Using the correct tapping speed is crucial to prevent damage to the tap or the material and to ensure the accuracy and quality of the threading.

To calculate the tapping speed, multiply the number of threads per inch by the rotational speed. Then divide the result by 1000.

Enter the number of threads per inch and the rotational speed into the calculator to determine the tapping speed. This calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.
