How to cut the thread on the pipe yourself?

Tool for creating threads

Tools from the list for cutting are called a threading set.

Its composition:

• Die and knife for threading different diameters.
• Special holder, in which the klapp is placed. In addition, there may be clamps and gauges, etc.

Than to cut a thread on a pipe: general recommendations

The process is carried out by a certain algorithm. If you do not observe it, then the marriage and breakdown will be overtaken very soon.

What should be the tool?

1. It must be sound and sharp.
2. The working tube is pre-prepared, cleaned from the paint layer, rust to the surface of the metal itself.
3. The outer chamfer is removed from the end face by a file or a bulgarian.
4. Cutters and work surface must be lubricated during operation. I use a special liquid or grease. Apply before the beginning of the robots and in the process.

Than to cut a thread on a pipe: a die

The plate looks like a nut from tool steel, and in the middle of it special cutting elements. Between these elements( edges) there is an outlet for the metal shavings. This type of cutting allows you to quickly cut any kind of pipe.

Procedure:

1. The vertical pipe is clamped by a vice or other device.
2. The pipe is cleaned to the color of the steel and a chamfer is removed from it.
3. Plate is inserted into the holder.
4. Apply grease to the incisors and the pipe.
5. It is necessary to combine the butt and the plate strictly perpendicular to the pipe. If you twist a little, the work will be spoiled, and the threads will break.
6. The thread is rotated by rotating the holder clockwise.
7. After a pair of turns are cut, the plate is returned in the opposite direction, thereby clearing the chip. It should be done smoothly and accurately.
8. Cutters on the tool must always be lubricated with a special fluid.
9. After the second pass and the last coil, it is necessary to cut the thread again.

Than to cut a thread on a pipe: klopp

This device differs not less functionality, than a die, but more modern. Composition: holder with grooves, on which will become replaceable incisors. When it is blunt, the incisors are easy to replace, so it provides economy. It is also easier to work and cut with the klapp, it has less weight and is safe to operate. There are mechanical swivels that control the accuracy of the turn.

New models of the klippa are equipped with ratchets, which allow you to twist the holder only in one direction and not lose in quality of work.

Sequence of cutting with a knot is as follows:

1. The work surface is fixed firmly.
2. A cluster of a certain diameter is placed in the holder.
3. Cutters on the pipe and pipe must be lubricated. Also lubricate during operation.
4. Place the edge of the pipe in the holder.
5. Turn the knob clockwise and cut the thread.
6. When you finish cutting the klipp you need to crank it again, like a die, in order for your result to be fixed.

Than to cut a thread on a pipe: electric klapp

The electric klopp from the previous differs naturally by presence of the electric motor thanks to which process considerably accelerates and becomes more qualitative. The process of working with this device occurs in several actions.

1. Fixing the workpiece in the clamp. It is bought in bundle with the klapp and for its launch it is necessary to simply press the button.
2. The thread takes place in seconds. Krupp has fasteners, which fixes the pipe.

Any work, no matter how easy and unpretentious it was, is not insured against marriage and imperfections, but in any scheme there are loopholes in order to avoid undesirable results. We present to your attention several ways how to get rid of marriage:

1. Use high-quality tools, otherwise you will have to pay a damaged piece from dull or rusty teeth.
2. Use grease on turns to avoid breakage and cracks.
3. Do not press the thread too much, as efforts can cause damage.
4. The diameter of the pipe and the dies should be commensurable.

The last tip is out of the paragraphs and for the entire cutting process. Buy a quality device and follow the recommendations! Do everything carefully, carefully and then a good result will not keep you waiting!
