Guys, I have been handed a bit of a miserable job
Customer gave me 17 pieces of a fairly expensive part with a 1.5000-12 UNJF OD thread, which are just above high limit on the PD.
They are all about .0002-.0004 above. No more, no less.
Parts were gaged using a tri-roll for both PD and functional, and all readings show the same and consistant.
My question: What would be the best way to repair these?
I do not have any CNC equipment that can re-chase threads and never had to try and pick up an existing one and follow it.
I do have a manual lathe with threading, but WILL NOT go there as it is far far clapped out for this job.
So, my question is: Would there be an easy button for this job?
I am thinking of contacting a thread grind shop tomorrow. The parts are expensive enough to warrant a ground thread repair, assuming they have an easier
ability to pick up threads.
Thanks
