[Shop-talk] Minimum wall thickness on tubing

["Eugene D Abbondelo" <eabb@loc.gov>]

Hope someone can help with this query. Hope it isn't too simplistic: 

I need to make straight-cut outside threads on some B= " steel tubing. 
I can buy the tubing in various wall thicknesses.  What would be the
minimum wall thickness needed to produce good threads that won't weaken
the tubing using your basic tap and die set?

Thanks,

Gene
