  2. Machine taper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_taper

    The rate of taper is 1:20 on diameter, in other words 0.600" on diameter per foot, .050" on diameter per inch. Tapers range from a Number 2 to a Number 20. The diameter of the big end in inches is always the taper size divided by 8, the small end is always the taper size divided by 10 and the length is the taper size divided by 2.

  3. National pipe thread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_pipe_thread

    The taper rate for all NPT threads is 1 inch of diameter in 16 inches of length (3 ⁄ 4 inch per foot or 62.5 millimeters per meter) measured by the change of diameter (of the pipe thread) over distance of thread. The half-angle (between the taper surface and the axis of the pipe) is arctan(1 ⁄ 32) ≈ 1.7899° ≈ 1° 47′.

  4. Shear (sheet metal) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shear_(sheet_metal)

    Setting the blade on an angle decreases the amount of force required, but increases the stroke. A 5-degree shear angle decreases the force by about 20% [citation needed]. The amount of energy used is still the same. The moving blade may also be inclined 0.5 to 2.5°, called the rake angle, to keep the material from becoming wedged between the ...

  5. Talk:Machine taper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Machine_taper

    Please note that the correct way to calculate the angle is: The taper is the change in the size of the diameter as you travel down the axis of the taper. So, take 1/2 the change size (1.75") and divide that by 12", arctan of the result is 1/2 the included angle. So 16.5942899... is correct.

  6. Surface plate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plate

    The cast iron was aged to reduce stress in the metal in an effort to decrease the likelihood of the plate twisting or warping over time. Cast-iron surface plates are now frequently used on production floors as a tool for lapping granite surface plates to achieve certain grades of accuracy. The metal allows itself to be impregnated with the ...

  8. Taper pin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taper_pin

    A 1:50 taper means that one end of a 50 mm long bar will be 1 mm smaller in diameter than the other end. Inch-sized taper pins have a slightly smaller taper taper on diameter of 1:48 [2] A 1:48 taper means that one end of a 4-foot-long bar (48 inches) will be 1 inch smaller in diameter than the other end, or a 1 ⁄ 4-inch taper over a 1-foot ...

  9. British Standard Pipe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Standard_Pipe

    For a taper thread, it is the diameter at the "gauge length" (plus/minus one thread pitch) from the small end of the thread. The taper is 1:16, meaning that for each 16 units of measurement increase in the distance from the end, the diameter increases by 1 unit of measurement.
