    Mechanical Properties of 1060 or 1566 Steel?

    We use precision ground and case hardened shafting made of 1060 or 1566 steel. I am trying to find the tensile and yield strength of either of these grades. Thanks for any info anyone can offer. Casey

    Terminal Connection Block

    Anyone know where I can find a 9 post terminal block to install in the conduit box of an electric motor. Our customer does not want to make the wire to wire connections with the motor leads. The motors are 9-lead, 3-phase, dual-voltage. I have seen this terminal block setup used quite often on...

    Flow/Pressure Formula

    I am looking for a simple formula to determine the amount of pressure required to cause a certain amount of water to flow through a certain size opening. To be specific, what pressure is required to make 26.4 GPM of water flow through a .50" opening? Estimated orifice coefficient: .97 Ambient...

    Using a Pump as a Motor

    I would like to use water power to drive a pump and create rotary motion. The rotory motion will be used to create vibration. I want to duplicate the vibration I am currently producing with an electric vibrator. The electric vibrator is 1/3 HP and operates at 1,750 RPM. At this point, I do not...
