Whitworth's new standard specified a 55° thread angle and a thread depth of 0.640327p and a radius of 0.137329p, where p is the pitch. The thread pitch increases with diameter in steps specified on a chart. The Whitworth thread system was later to be adopted as a British Standard to become British Standard Whitworth (BSW).
Diagram of a thread angle. In mechanical engineering, the thread angle of a screw is the included angle between the thread flanks, measured in a plane containing the thread axis. [1] This is a defining factor for the shape of a screw thread. Standard values include:
This was simplified in the BA thread definition by defining the thread angle to be 47.5° exactly and the thread form to be symmetrical with a depth of 3 / 5 p. The British Standards Institution recommends the use of BA sizes in favour of the smaller British Standard Whitworth (BSW) and British Standard Fine (BSF) thread screws (those ...
Sellers simplified the Whitworth design by adopting a thread profile of 60° and a flattened tip (in contrast to Whitworth's 55° angle and rounded tip). [ 16 ] [ 17 ] The 60° angle was already in common use in America, [ 18 ] but Sellers's system promised to make it and all other details of threadform consistent.
The thread form follows the British Standard Whitworth standard: Symmetrical V-thread in which the angle between the flanks is 55° (measured in an axial plane) One-sixth of this sharp V is truncated at the top and the bottom; The threads are rounded equally at crests and roots by circular arcs ending tangentially with the flanks where r ≈ 0 ...
The standard designation for a UTS thread is a number indicating the nominal (major) diameter of the thread, followed by the pitch measured in threads per inch.For diameters smaller than 1 / 4 inch, the diameter is indicated by an integer number defined in the standard; for all other diameters, the inch figure is given.
