Screw Capacity tables for Aluminum
Screw Capacity tables for Aluminum
(OP)
Is anyone aware of published loads for tension & shear of a self tapping screw into aluminum similar to the ones available for screwing into steel?
I'm trying to avoid the redundant calculations pull out, pull through, etc. Any suggestions will help.
Thanks

The above publication has tables for 6063-T5 and 6063-T6

Keep in mind that the AAMA document is quite old and arguably out of date in some regards. Take a look at the following link for a relevant post I made on Seaint a few months ago. You may or may not want to consider what the current Aluminum Design Manual has to say about material properties, safety factors, etc.
