A Higbee cut is a specific cut added to a screw thread to produce a blunt start, instead of the sharp end of the unmodified screw thread. It is named for its inventor Clinton Higbee. The presence of a Higbee cut on both male and female threads eliminates the chance of cross threading. A blunt start thread possessing a Higbee cut is also known ...
Higbee cut Special cut at the beginning of the thread on a hose coupling that provides positive identification of the first thread to eliminate cross threading. [6] Higbee indicators Notches or groves cut into coupling lugs to identify by touch or sight the exact location of the Higbee cut. [6] High pressure fog (HPF)
Typically, many rifles use thread diameters in the range between 25–27 mm (0.98–1.06 in). [citation needed] Many older rifles from the first half of the 20th century use a thread pitch around 2 mm (12.7 TPI), while many modern rifle use thread pitches around 1.5 mm (16.93 TPI). Fine threaded systems intended for hand tightening typically ...
The design was first proposed by the British Association in 1884 [1] [2] with a thread angle and depth based on the Swiss Thury thread, [3] it was adopted by the Association in 1903. The Thury thread was different in that it went both positive and negative all the way up to a size of −20 which was 75.2 mm diameter by 8.23 mm pitch (p). The ...
In manufacturing, threading is the process of creating a screw thread.More screw threads are produced each year than any other machine element. [1] There are many methods of generating threads, including subtractive methods (many kinds of thread cutting and grinding, as detailed below); deformative or transformative methods (rolling and forming; molding and casting); additive methods (such as ...
A self-tapping machine screw is similar to a machine screw, except the lower part of the shank is designed to cut threads as the screw is driven into an untapped hole. The advantage of this screw type over a self-drilling screw is that, if the screw is reinstalled, new threads are not cut as the screw is driven. set bolt: tap bolt, setscrew
