JARVIS FEATURE | JARFLO TAP TEST FOR PRONIC

JARVIS FEATURE

M8 x 1.25 JARFLO & M6 X 1.0 JARFLO TAP TEST FOR PRONIC

Brake caliper is for a large “over the road” truck.

Material is a ductile cast iron.

Our machine builder partners (Pronic) wanted to see if the part could be converted from a cut tap to a (Jarflo) form tap.

A brake caliper part was sent to Jarvis where we modified the hole diameters for form tapping and then we successfully tapped the four holes.

Our Jarflo taps were able to form the threads (rather than cut them) which eliminated the need to remove chips.

We returned the caliper to out partner so that they could use it as a proof of concept.
