ROLLABLE MATERIALS

Below is a list of thread rolling material with proven rollability.  The max hardness for thread rolling is 45 on the Rockwell C scale. As the material hardness approaches 45, the thread roll life diminishes.

  • Case Hardening Nitriding
  • Cast Iron with an elongation factor great than 8%
  • Cast Steel
  • Free Cutting
  • Heat Treatable
  • High Speed
  • Malleable Iron
  • Structural
  • Stainless
  • Tempered
  • Tool Steel
