Hamlet HCT206B Thread Chasers – 18 TPI
The Hamlet HCT206B Thread Chasers are designed for hand-cutting accurate, matching threads on woodturning projects such as lidded boxes, containers and urns.
Each set includes a matched pair:
- Male/external thread chaser: Cuts the thread on the outside of the workpiece.
- Female/internal thread chaser: Cuts the corresponding thread inside the workpiece.
The fine 18 TPI thread pitch produces detailed threads and is well suited to learning and refining traditional thread-chasing techniques. For best results, use dense, close-grained timbers capable of holding a clean, well-defined thread.
Features
- Matched male and female thread-chaser pair
- 18 threads per inch
- Manufactured from M2 high-speed steel
- Excellent edge retention and durability
- Made in Sheffield, England
- Supplied with fitted timber handles
Recommended Companion Tool
When cutting internal threads, the Hamlet HCT208 Recessing Tool can be used to create a relief recess at the end of the threaded area. This provides clearance for the internal thread chaser at the end of each pass, helping produce cleaner and more controlled threads.
Please note: The HCT208 Recessing Tool is sold separately.
