Galling is a form of wear caused by adhesion between sliding surfaces Galling is a common problem where metals such as stainless steel aluminum and titanium slide while in contact with like or dissimilar metals The interaction of the two sliding surfaces may result in the transfer of material from one sliding surface to another Pressure builds between the surfaces and breaks

threading process Internal threads are always cut threads producing rougher thread flanks than the bolts they mate with The reason thread galling problems are inconsistent is probably due largely to the inconsistencies in the tapping operation Rougher than normal internal threads may be the result of the use of dull taps or the tapping operation may have been done at an

Galling can occur for a variety of reasons Galling is caused by metal to metal contact between the pin and box threads When this happen the metal from the one thread is picked up by the other Sometimes this is minimal and the connections appear to work OK but create problems later A good grade of tool joint compound will prevent galling – if it is kept clean and applied
