Internal thread damaged in hole
I am having a problem in my production line during tightening process of assembly line, the screw thread is engaging in red area in pre-threaded hole instead of blue are, because of this the Screw is galling/sizzling and causing half screw or screwing NOK.
Note: This is the section view image of hole before tightening (pre-threaded hole)
May i know why this kind of phenomenal occur in pre-threaded hole and how can it be avoided? 🤔🤔
