Thread axially miscut

| Possible causes | Solution |
| spiral-fluted taps, corresponding to our design, are applied with too much pressure for initial tapping | with spiral-fluted taps only light pressure required for initial tapping. The tap should immediately be applied within the tension/compression range |
| initial tapping pressure too low for taps with spiral point corresponding to our form “B” | taps with spiral point or left hand spiral require higher axial pressure. Ensure tap operates within the tension/ compression range |
