2. Fusible plug - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug

   A drawing of a fusible plug, showing the tapered core. A fusible plug is a threaded cylinder of metal, usually bronze, brass or gunmetal, with a tapered hole drilled completely through its length. This hole is sealed with a metal of low melting point that flows away if a predetermined high temperature is reached.

3. Core plug - Wikipedia

   This feature causes the tap to continuously break the chip and eject it forward into the hole, preventing crowding. Spiral point taps are usually used in holes that go all the way through the material, so that the chips can escape. Another version of the spiral point plug tap is the spiral flute tap, whose flutes resemble those of a twist drill ...

7. Threading (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threading_(manufacturing)

   In manufacturing, threading is the process of creating a screw thread.More screw threads are produced each year than any other machine element. [1] There are many methods of generating threads, including subtractive methods (many kinds of thread cutting and grinding, as detailed below); deformative or transformative methods (rolling and forming; molding and casting); additive methods (such as ...
