fastening

 Mechanical Fastening
Bolts, screws, rivets, keys, pins
 Bonding
Welding, soldering, brazing, gluing
 Forming
Sheet metal, plastic snap parts

Useful joining
acceleration forcestechnique that allows disassembly
but need to guard against loosening
most screw threads are right-handed
widely used throughout industry:
2.5 million fasteners in a Boeing 747
most are rivets

More than 125 Nm

Threaded Fasteners terminology

 Bolt head on one end, threads on other end, used


with a nut
 Stud rod threaded at both ends
 Cap screw head on one end, threads on other end,
NOT used with a nut
 Machine screw similar to cap screw but smaller
 Set screw used to prevent 2 rotating parts from
moving separately
Threaded Fasteners terminology

 Internal threads
Threads inside a hole
Made by drill & tap:
 drill smooth hole

 make threads with a tap

 External threads
Threads outside a cylinder
Made with a die
Made by rolling

Threads for power screws

Used for power transmission


These have preferred sizes but also can vary
Modifications to these threads are easy

(a) Single, (b) double, (c) triple threaded screws.

Bolts withstanding
Bolt materials are identified according to property class.
the same
The designation for each loadclass consists of two figures
property
which are separated by a full-stop
The first figure is equal to a hundredth of the nominal tensile
strenght Rm in MPA
The second figure indicates 10 times the ratio of the nominal yield
stress Rp02 to the nominal tensile stress Rm (ratio yield
point)
If the two figures are multiplied together the result is a tenth of the
nominal yield stress in MPa
