Threaded Fastner
Threaded Fastner
(OP)
Hi, glad to be making first post.
I have a lock nut that is used to retain some components inside a cylindrical part. It has an internal hex, for installation, and is threaded externally (i.e. the cylindrical part is the femal thread, lock nut is male). I think I may have misunderstood the type of fastner it is and I cannot find any specification for this type of fastener and its associated thread.
Can anyone help identify where I may find this?
Thanks,
MWATP

Sounds like it may be a "hex drive plug" or some such.

The good engineer does not need to memorize every formula; he just needs to know where he can find them when he needs them. Old professor
