Abstract: In order to form an internal thread having a concave surface having the same shape as that obtained by using a thread cutting blade having a convex surface without using such a thread cutting blade in formation of an internal thread hole in a mold component or the like using a thread milling cutter, a trimming blade has a leading-side flank surface extending from an axial tip side of a tool body to the rear side, a top surface formed continuously to the leading-side flank surface in the axial direction, and a trailing-side flank surface formed continuously to the top surface in the axial direction. Two or more chamfered surfaces are formed between the leading-side flank surface and the top surface and between the top surface and the trailing-side flank surface in the trimming blade.

Abstract: In a screw thread cutter, a screw thread-cutting edge is formed on an outer periphery of a tip portion of a cutter body. Finishing edge-thread ridge height from a tangent line passing through valley bottoms of second and third valley portions to outer peripheral ends of first and second finishing edges are equal to each other. A preceding edge-thread ridge height from the tangent line to an outer peripheral end of a preceding edge is lower than each of the finishing edge-thread ridge height. A first valley portion-depth from the outer peripheral end of the first finishing edge to the valley bottom of the first valley portion is deeper than a second valley portion-depth from the outer peripheral end of the second finishing edge to the valley bottom of the second valley portion.
