| Acme thread mills come in both acme and stub acme configurations. Different tools are available to cut the internal and external thread. | |
| Long reach thread mills have three teeth and a helical flute that excel in internal deep threads and hard to cut materials. | |
| Long reach thread mills have three teeth and a helical flute that excel in internal deep threads and hard-to-cut materials. | |
| NPT thread mills come in straight, helical and staggered tooth design. They will cut both internal and external threads. NPTF are for dryseal applications. | |
| Single profile thread mills will cut internal and external threads in a range of thread sizes with minimum cutting pressure. | |
| Single profile thread mills will cut internal and external threads in a range of thread sizes with minimum side cutting pressure. | |
| Staggered tooth thread mills will cut internal and external threads. Every other tooth removed in a staggered pattern for reduced side cutting pressure. | |
| Straight flute thread mills come in a large variety of sizes and are crest cutting for internal threads only. | |
| The 15° helical flute thread mills are non-crest cutting for internal threads only. The helical flute distributes the side cutting pressure. | |
| The 15° helical flute thread mills are non-crest cutting for internal threads only. The helical flutes distribute the side cutting pressure. | |
| The 30° helical flute thread mills will cut internal and external threads. The helical flute distributes side cutting pressure. | |
| The 30° helical flute thread mills will cut internal and external threads. The helical flutes distribute the side cutting pressure. | |
| These straight flute thread mills have a 55° thread profile and cut the British Standard Pipe Parallel (BSPP) and the British Standard Pipe Taper (BSPT). | |
| These straight flute thread mills have the root radius that is required for the external "UNJ" thread. |
