Many differential screw configurations are possible. The micrometer adjuster pictured uses a nut sleeve with different inner and outer thread pitches to connect a screw on the adjusting rod end with threads inside the main barrel; as the thimble rotates the nut sleeve, the rod and barrel move relative to each other based on the differential between the threads.
A compression fitting 15 mm isolating valve. A compression fitting is a fitting used in plumbing and electrical conduit systems to join two tubes or thin-walled pipes together. .
