Types of threaded joints and fasteners
Bolted connection Are the simplest and cheapest, not require thread in the parts, joints 2 thin parts
5
Types of threaded joints and fasteners
Screw joints Are useful where one of the parts to be joined is rather thick , a screw is driven into a threaded holes in the thicker part
6
Types of threaded joints and fasteners
Stud joints Are made where one of the parts is much thicker than the other , and the connection is to be frequently disassembled in service.
7

Major Diameter: The largest diameter. Threads per inch: Number of threads per inch for a particular diameter. Equal to one over the pitch (1/P).
41
Unified Threads (inch)
Thread Form and Series: The shape of the thread cut. UNC = Unified National coarse. For general use. UNF = Unified National fine. Used when high degree of tightness is required. UNEF = Unified National extra fine. Used when length of engagement is limited (Example: Sheet metal).
42
Unified Threads (inch)
Thread Class: Closeness of fit between the two mating threaded parts. 1 = Generous tolerance. For rapid assembly and disassembly. 2 = Normal production 3 = High accuracy
43
Unified Threads (inch)
External or Internal Threads A = External threads B = Internal threads Right handed or left handed thread RH = Right handed (right handed threads are assumed if not stated.) LH = Left handed
44
Unified Threads (inch)
Depth of thread: The thread depth is given at the end of the thread note and indicates the thread depth for internal threads This is not the tap drill depth.
45
Unified Threads (inch)
Thread class is assumed to be 2. Threads are assumed to be RH. May be left off if assumptions hold.

Pitch: (P) Millimeters per thread.
63
Metric Threads Tolerance Class: It describes the looseness or tightness of fit between the internal and external threads. Number = Tolerance grade Letter = Tolerance position
64
Metric Threads Tolerance Class:
Tolerance Grade: Smaller numbers indicate a tighter fit. Tolerance Position: Specifies the amount of allowance. Upper case letters = internal threads Lower case letters = external threads.
65
Metric Threads Tolerance Class: Two classes of metric thread fits are generally used. 6H/6g = General purpose 6H/5g6g = Closer fit. A tolerance class of 6H/6g is assumed if it is not specified.
66

77
Bolt and Screw Clearances
Bolts and screws attach one material with a clearance hole to another material with a threaded hole.
78
Bolt and Screw Clearances
The size of the clearance hole depends on; the major diameter of the fastener and the type of fit normal close loose
79
Table 5-2 (Normal fit clearances)
Other fits may be found in Appendix B.
80
Bolt and Screw Clearances
Sometimes bolt or screw heads need to be flush with the surface. This can be achieved by using either a counterbore or countersink depending on the fasteners head shape.
81
Bolt and Screw Clearances
Counterbores: Counterbores are holes designed to recess bolt or screw heads below the surface of a part. Typically, CH = H + 1/16 (1.5 mm) and C1 = D1 + 1/8 (3 mm)
82

Keys Keys are machine elements used to prevent relative rotational movement between a shaft and the parts mounted on it, such as pulleys, gears, wheels, couplings, etc.
106
Keys classifications Keys are classified into: saddle keys sunk keys
round keys
107
saddle keys These are taper keys, with uniform width but tapering in thickness on the upper side. The magnitude of the taper provided is 1:100. These are made in two forms: hollow saddle key Flat saddle key The two types of saddle keys are suitable for light duty only.
108
hollow saddle key
109
Flat saddle key
110
sunk keys These are the standard forms of keys used in practice, and may be either square or rectangular in cross-section. The end may be squared or rounded. Generally, half the thickness of the key fits into the shaft keyway and the remaining half in the hub keyway. These keys are used for heavy duty
111
Sunk keys classification
Sunk keys may be classified as: (i) taper keys, (ii) parallel or feather keys (iii) woodruff keys.
112
taper sunk keys W = 0.25 D + 2 mm T = 0.67 W (at the thicker end)
H = 1.75 T B = 1.5 T Key with square or rectangular head Key with Gib head
113
parallel or feather key
A parallel or feather key is a sunk key, uniform in width and thickness as well. These keys are used when the parts (gears, clutches, etc.) mounted are required to slide along the shaft; permitting relative axial movement. To achieve this, a clearance fit must exist between the key and the keyway in which it slides, fitted into the keyway provided on the shaft by two or more screws or into the hub of the mounting
114
Types of parallel or feather key
peg feather key single headed feather key double headed feather key
115
Splines Splines are keys made integral with the shaft, by cutting equi-spaced grooves of uniform cross-section. The shaft with splines is called a splined shaft. The splines on the shaft, fit into the corresponding recesses in the hub of the mounting, with a sliding fit, providing a positive drive and at the same time permitting the latter to move axially along the shaft
116
woodruff keys It is a sunk key, in the form of a segment of a circular disc of uniform thickness, As the bottom surface of the key is circular, the keyway in the shaft is in the form of a circular recess to the same curvature as the key. If D is the diameter of the shaft, Thickness of key, W = 0.25 D Diameter of key, d = 3 W Height of key, T = 1.35 W Depth of the keyway in the hub, T1 = 0.5 W mm Depth of keyway in shaft, T2 = 0.85 W
117
round keys Round keys are of circular cross-section, usually tapered (1:50) along the length. A round key fits in the hole drilled partly in the shaft and partly in the hub . The mean diameter of the pin may be taken as 0.25 D, where D is shaft diameter. Round keys are generally used for light duty, where the loads are not considerable.

Cotter Pin A cotter is a flat wedge shaped piece, made of steel. It is uniform in thickness but tapering in width, generally on one side; the usual taper being 1:30. The lateral (bearing) edges of the cotter and the bearing slots are generally made semi-circular instead of straight
126
Cotter joints are used to connect two rods, subjected to tensile or compressive forces along their axes. These joints are not suitable where the members are under rotation
127
This joint is also used to fasten two circular rods
This joint is also used to fasten two circular rods. In this, the rod ends are modified instead of using a sleeve. One end of the rod is formed into a socket and the other into a spigot
128
This joint is generally used to connect two rods of square or rectangular cross-section. To make the joint, one end of the rod is formed into a U-fork, into which, the end of the other rod fits in
129
A knuckle joint is a pin joint used to fasten two circular rods
A knuckle joint is a pin joint used to fasten two circular rods. In this joint, one end of the rod is formed into an eye and the other into a fork (double eye). Knuckle joints are used in suspension links, air brake arrangement of locomotives, etc.
