I have about 300 little swage nuts to make. Material is 303 s/s, .625" od, 7/16-20, class 3, id threads, only about 3 threads long. The customer is very picky. My machine is a Mazak QT-15. I'm torn on weather to single point them or to tap them. I think the operation time will be pretty similar. Not sure yet. There may be a little extra cost to me with the tapping option since I may need to buy a tap holder for a 7/16 tap.
This is not a huge big deal but I seem to debate this often so I thought I would throw it out there to see what some of the masters have to say.
Thanks!
