We only use Karnasch tools for copper for our electrodes. We order out of Germany for them and get as small at .2mm ball nose tools that are typically 0/-.01mm
I'm a pretty big fan of Union Tool for this (copper electrodes), they have different tolerance levels you can buy but I think the worst is +/- .01mm which is just shy of .0004"
Mic 6 is a cast aluminum material so a cut thread will have less holding pressure than with wrought/ extruded material. Depending on the thread usage you may want to roll tap to get the increased holding pressure.
