    Need to settle a debate - Tool Steel O-1 or 0-1

    Thank you TenPenny for your answer. This is the conclusion that I had as well. I have receiced prints from customers with the call out with a zero. I was not sure which was technically correct. Thank you, Micromatic

    Need to settle a debate - Tool Steel O-1 or 0-1

    This forum is for professionals looking for information from the engineering community. I appreciate people responding to this post, but need a serious answer to this issue. If you need a release for you comedy, please go to an 'Open Mic-night' at your local comedy club. Thank you, Micromatic

    Need to settle a debate - Tool Steel O-1 or 0-1

    I am looking to settle a debate on the call out for a specific tool steel. What should the call out be for 0-1 Tool Steel? Is it the letter 'O' or the number 'zero'? O-1 Tool Steel or 0-1 Tool Steel I have seen both of them used. I have called metal suppliers and they said they are...

    Torque Specification for a threaded connection

    To make it clear, at this point, I am looking for someone to check my method of calculation and the value of yield strength for 4140 PH at 61,000lb\in2. Thank you, Wiley

    Torque Specification for a threaded connection

    No, the formula that I used was for Pre-load only. I needed to calculate the torque required based on the pre-load. I made a simple first year engineering mistake, not doing enough research prior to doing the calculations. To expand on my calculations, my preload for the treaded connection is...

    Torque Specification for a threaded connection

    Okay, I have reviewed the calculations and what I calculated was the Pre-load tension required. I needed to calculate the torque with the following formula. T = k*Fi*d; T = Torque k = contstant coefficent based on threaded connection Fi = Pre-load d = bolt diameter (nominal) To make sure I...

    Torque Specification for a threaded connection

    We are changing a design from a welded connection to a dry threaded connection. The welding process causes the part to warp. I have designed the connection to be a 1-14 UN male to a 1-14 UN female. The male thread is made from 4140 PH material with an outside diameter of 1.25 inches. The female...
