I need some help with tapping some M4 thread in a part.
Material: Stainless 304
The thread goes 30mm deep
Thread size: m4
How should I tap it?
Peck tapping? Tapping it in one go?
I don't do allot of stainless.
What I did was tap the thread 10mm deep. And do the rest by hand. But due to my lack of expierence with stainless...I didn't knew it would work harden and will break taps.
