A driving cap is a special type of pipe cap used to provide a striking surface for a hammer while simultaneously protecting the end of the pipe from deformation. [1] A driving cap is made of much thicker or more durable material than a standard pipe cap and is always removed once installation is complete.
Steel pipe is often joined with threaded connections; tapered threads are cut into the end of the pipe, and sealant is applied in the form of thread-sealing compound or thread seal tape (also known as PTFE or Teflon tape) and the pipe is screwed into a threaded fitting with a pipe wrench.
In software engineering, the adapter pattern is a software design pattern (also known as wrapper, an alternative naming shared with the decorator pattern) that allows the interface of an existing class to be used as another interface. [1] It is often used to make existing classes work with others without modifying their source code.
Angular 2.0 was announced at the ng-Europe conference 22–23 October 2014. [16] On April 30, 2015, the Angular developers announced that Angular 2 moved from Alpha to Developer Preview. [17] Angular 2 moved to Beta in December 2015, [18] and the first release candidate was published in May 2016. [19] The final version was released on 14 ...
For performance, most operating systems implementing pipes use pipe buffers, which allow the source process to provide more data than the destination process is currently able or willing to receive. Under most Unixes and Unix-like operating systems, a special command is also available, typically called "buffer", that implements a pipe buffer of ...
Knurling produces indentations on a part of a workpiece, allowing hands or fingers to get a better grip on the knurled object than would be provided by the original smooth surface. Occasionally, the knurled pattern is a series of straight ridges or a helix of "straight" ridges rather than the more-usual criss-cross pattern.
A chase nipple is a short pipe fitting, which creates a path for wires between two electrical boxes. A chase nipple has male threads on one end only. The other end is a hexagon. The chase nipple passes through the knockouts of two boxes, and is secured by an internally threaded ring called a lock nut. [1] [2]
The manufacturing of such an end is easier than that of a hemisphere. The starting material is first pressed to a radius r 1 and then curled at the edge creating the second radius r 2 . Vessel dished ends can also be welded together from smaller pieces.
