2. Coupling nut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_nut

   Coupling nuts can be used to tighten a rod assembly inward or to press a rod assembly outward. [4] [5] Along with bolts or studs, coupling nuts are also often used to make homemade bearing and seal pullers/presses. The advantage of a connecting nut over a standard nut in this application is that, due to its length, a greater number of threads ...

   In contrast to a coupling requiring solvent welding, soldering, or rotation (for threaded couplings), a union allows easy connection and disconnection multiple times if needed. It consists of three parts: a nut, a female, and a male end. When the female and male ends are joined, the nut seals the joint by pressing the two ends tightly together.

4. Width across flats - Wikipedia

   The two systems are in general not compatible, which can result in rounding of nuts and bolts (i.e. using a 13 mm (0.51 in) spanner in place of a 1 ⁄ 2 inch (12.70 mm)). A few sizes are close enough to interchange for most purposes, such as 19 mm (close to 3 ⁄ 4 inch (19.05 mm)), 8 mm (close to 5 ⁄ 16 inch (7.94 mm)) and 4 mm (close to 5 ...

   Sleeve couplings are also known as box couplings. In this case shaft ends are coupled together and abutted against each other which are enveloped by muff or sleeve. A gib head sunk keys hold the two shafts and sleeve together (this is the simplest type of the coupling) It is made from the cast iron and very simple to design and manufacture. It ...
