Thread Rolling

Accurate, Strong & Economical

With the advantages derived from the cold working of the material, many industries (aircraft, nuclear, construction, petrochemical, medical, etc.) require their threaded components to be thread rolled for strength.

Rolled threads produced on Tesker thread rollers offer many advantages:

• Strength
• Accuracy
• Fine surface finish
• High production rates
• Minimal defects
• No chips
• Lower material costs
