Why are thread mills so expensive anyway?
Physically they are a comparable size and material quantity as a similar tap or similarly sized end mill, only the geometry of them is really different. Since all these tools are presumably produced on the same multi axis CNC grinders, why the cost difference? Is it just because they are newer technology? |
