It is not like a tap, it has no thread lead. All the teeth are in rings. The tricks is it only touches the OD in one line along the length of the hole. It can do EXTERNAL threads the same way, you orbit around the OD of a post and it will thread the outside. The spindle needs to extend or retract in synch with the rotation of the orbit to develop the correct thread pitch.
