2. Perm (hairstyle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(hairstyle)

   There are two parts to a perm: the physical action of wrapping the hair, and the chemical phase. Both of these can affect the result. Important physical variables involved are what type of rod is used, how the hair is wrapped and how end papers are used. The two most common types of rods are straight and concave; each giving a different curl ...

3. List of drill and tap sizes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drill_and_tap_sizes

   For both of these rules of thumb (85%/90% and major minus pitch), the tap drill size yielded is not necessarily the only possible one, but it is a good one for general use. The 85% and 90% rules works best in the range of 1 ⁄ 4 –1 in (6.4–25.4 mm), the sizes most important on many shop floors. Some sizes outside that range have different ...

4. Perm (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(unit)

   A variant of the metric perm is used in DIN Standard 53122, where permeance is also expressed in grams per square meter per day, but at a fixed, "standard" vapor-pressure difference of 17.918 mmHg. This unit is thus 17.918 times smaller than a metric perm, corresponding to about 0.084683 of a U.S. perm.

5. Rod (unit) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_(unit)

   The rod, perch, or pole (sometimes also lug) is a surveyor's tool [1] and unit of length of various historical definitions. In British imperial and US customary units, it is defined as 16 + 1 ⁄ 2 feet, equal to exactly 1 ⁄ 320 of a mile, or 5 + 1 ⁄ 2 yards (a quarter of a surveyor's chain), and is exactly 5.0292 meters.

6. Dread perming - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dread_perming

   The perm also serves to 'rough up' Asian or white people's hair so that it will more easily tangle. A natural look begins to occur a few months later when the hair loosens somewhat. Within the time-span of several weeks to months, depending on the setting method, dread-permed dreadlocks will look nearly indistinguishable from naturally grown ...

7. Threaded rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threaded_rod

   A threaded rod, also known as a stud, is a relatively long rod that is threaded on both ends; the thread may extend along the complete length of the rod. [1] They are designed to be used in tension. [2] Threaded rod in bar stock form is often called all-thread (ATR); other names include fully-threaded rod, redi-rod, continuously-threaded rod ...

8. English Engineering Units - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Engineering_Units

   Units for other physical quantities are derived from this set as needed. In English Engineering Units, the pound-mass and the pound-force are distinct base units, and Newton's Second Law of Motion takes the form = where is the acceleration in ft/s 2 and g c = 32.174 lb·ft/(lbf·s 2).

9. Trapezoidal thread form - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoidal_thread_form

   Basic Acme thread profile. The Acme thread form has a 29° thread angle with a thread height half of the pitch; the apex (or crest) and valley (or root) are flat.This shape is easier to machine (faster cutting, longer tool life) than a square thread.
