Secondary Operation
Tapping
Internal threads added in-house in standard tap sizes, run right after cutting and bending — no shipping parts out for a second operation.
Why In-House
Threads without the detour.
Most shops cut your part, then make you find someone else to thread it. At ACP, tapping happens on the same floor as cutting and forming — one purchase order, one lead time, one point of accountability.
- Standard tap sizes in metals we cut and form
- Sequenced correctly — tapped after forming so threads stay true
- Assembly-ready parts — fasteners go straight in on arrival
Spec detail on request: specific tap sizes, thread depth limits, and per-material tapping tolerances aren't published online yet the way cutting specs are. Include thread callouts on your drawing and the team will confirm exactly what's supported before you order. Confirm with shop
Related: need countersunk holes for flush fasteners instead? That's handled the same way — in-house, alongside cutting and forming. Mention it in your quote notes.
