Press Fit (thin wall SS tube)
Press Fit (thin wall SS tube)
(OP)
Hi
Need some help in designing a press - interference fit
We have a 6-4 Titanium collar (OD 22.2mm ID TO BE DETERMINED) which we currently connect by loctite to a:
14.1mm OD,
13.1mm ID
304 Stainless tube (not annealed)
6mm insertion of tube into the titanium
Despite our best efforts the loctite works 95% of the time only!
I wonder if someone could help us design the ID of aperture in the titanium part- for a press fit
The press force available would be that normally availble in workshops only
We out source production and want to make some best guess prototypes, and as you know titanium is expensive +
Cheers Simon
