Gentlemen, while I have good knowledge op taps I'm running into an issue with over loading when tap is trying to reverse out of hole.
We started out with standard 59/64 drill and a tapping depth of .920.... Spindle overloaded.
Moved to 59/64 drill and a tapered 1.0 EM with 1.5 Deg. Draft to reduce some of the load.... Spindle overloaded.
So next is to increase RPM to decrease spindle load but what is the safest RPM to Increase this to and generate more power..
If it all fails I'll thread mill.
Below is code I'm using.
( 3/4-14 NPT TAP | TOOL - 4 | DIA. OFF. - 4 | LEN. - 4 | TOOL DIA. - 1.05 )
( TAPS HOLE ON B0. SIDE )
