Abstract (en)

[origin: US4799372A] A process for forming a helical screw thread comprising a flank with negative inclination on the wall of a rotationally symmetrical body (19) such as a metal pipe or tube. A first phase involves producing a screw thread having flanks with a positive inclination and then a second phase involves modifying the inclination of one of the flanks (24) by plastic deformation to make it negative (32). For that purpose, use is made of a roller (26) mounted on an inclined axis (X2-X2), which rolls against the flank of the thread.
