1018, .625 deep, 29/64 hole, 1/2x20, 670, 630, or 440 rpm, drill press work using a tapping head with 3 flute straight tap w/spiral tip. first few threads are ripped out (for lack of a better term). tried shutting off before reversing and unscrewed by hand. top threads were "worn" or thin. when reversing they are virtually non-existent - so i believe there is damage going in and out. suggestions? thks
