For example, a bolt with coarse threads (16 tpi, 0.0625 in [1.59 mm] per turn) on one end and fine threads (24 tpi, 0.0416 in [1.06 mm] per turn) on the other changes the distance between the nuts by about 0.02 inches (0.51 mm) per revolution and is equivalent to a 48 tpi (0.53 mm/thread) thread:
A nutdriver or nut driver is a hand tool for tightening or loosening nuts and bolts. It essentially consists of a socket attached to a shaft and cylindrical handle and is similar in appearance and use to a screwdriver. [1] They generally have a hollow shaft to accommodate a shank onto which a nut is threaded.
For a screw it is the ratio of the circular distance d in a point on the edge of the shaft moves to the linear distance d out the shaft moves. If r is the radius of the shaft, in one turn a point on the screw's rim moves a distance of 2π r , while its shaft moves linearly by the lead distance l .
The different shaped tips have different properties that engineers can utilize. If an engineer were to use a detent to ensure proper nesting of the screw, they might choose to use a cone point type of screw. One might often need to use a flat point when the screw must press perfectly flat against a surface. The most common type is the cup point.
An endcap return ball nut employs a cap on the end of the ball nut. The cap is machined to pick up balls coming out of the end of the nut and direct them down holes which are bored transversely down the ballnut. The complement cap on the other side of the nut directs balls back into the raceway.
Sex bolt: Barrel nut, barrel bolt, binding barrel, Chicago screw, post and screw or connector bolt Has a barrel-shaped flange and protruding boss that is internally threaded Split nut: Split lengthwise into two pieces (opposed halves) so that its female thread may be opened and closed over the male thread of a bolt or leadscrew Sleeve nut ...
A distorted thread locknut, [1] is a type of locknut that uses a deformed section of thread to keep the nut from loosening due to vibrations, or rotation of the clamped item. There are four types: elliptical offset nuts, centerlock nuts, toplock nuts and partially depitched (Philidas) nuts.
Hanger bolt - Bolt that has no head, machine threaded body followed by a wood threaded screw tip. Allow nuts to be attached to what is really a screw. Hex bolt - Bolt with a hexagonal head and threaded shank. Section immediately under head may be unthreaded for fastening thicker materials. J bolt - Bolt shaped like the letter J, used for tie downs.
