CENTRALIZING ACME SCREW THREADS 1837<br />

Table 8a. American National St<strong>and</strong>ard Centralizing Acme Single-Start Screw<br />

<strong>Threads</strong> — Formulas for Determining Diameters ASME/ANSI B1.5-1988<br />

D = Nominal Size or Diameter in Inches<br />

P = Pitch = 1 ÷ Number of <strong>Threads</strong> per Inch<br />

No. Classes 2C, 3C, <strong>and</strong> 4C External <strong>Threads</strong> (Screws)<br />

1 Major Dia., Max = D (Basic).<br />

2 Major Dia., Min = D minus tolerance from Table 12, columns 7, 8, or 10.<br />

3 Pitch Dia., Max = Int. Pitch Dia., Min (Formula 9) minus allowance from the appropriate<br />

Class 2C, 3C, or 4C column of Table 10.<br />

4 Pitch Dia., Min = Ext. Pitch Dia., Max (Formula 3) minus tolerance from Table 11.<br />

5 Minor Dia., Max = D minus P minus allowance from Table 12, column 3.<br />

6 Minor Dia., Min = Ext. Minor Dia., Max (Formula 5) minus 1.5 × Pitch Dia. tolerance<br />

from Table 11.<br />

Classes 2C, 3C, <strong>and</strong> 4C Internal <strong>Threads</strong> (Nuts)<br />

7 Major Dia., Min = D plus allowance from Table 12, column 4.<br />

8 Major Dia., Max = Int. Major Dia., Min (Formula 7) plus tolerance from Table 12, columns<br />

7, 9, or 11.<br />

9 Pitch Dia., Min = D minus P/2 (Basic).<br />

10 Pitch Dia., Max = Int. Pitch Dia., Min (Formula 9) plus tolerance from Table 11.<br />

11 Minor Dia., Min = D minus 0.9P.<br />

12 Minor Dia., Max = Int. Minor Dia., Min (Formula 11) plus tolerance from Table 12,<br />

column 6.<br />

A minimum diametral clearance at the major diameter is obtained by establishing the<br />

minimum major diameter of the internal thread 0.001 D above the basic major diameter.<br />

These allowances are shown in Table 12.<br />

Major <strong>and</strong> Minor Diameter Tolerances: The tolerances on the major <strong>and</strong> minor diameters<br />

of the external <strong>and</strong> internal threads are listed in Table 12 <strong>and</strong> are based upon the formulas<br />

given in the column headings.<br />

An increase of 10 per cent in the allowance is recommended for each inch or fraction<br />

thereof that the length of engagement exceeds two diameters.<br />

For <strong>info</strong>rmation on gages for Centralizing Acme threads the St<strong>and</strong>ard ASME/ANSI B1.5<br />

should be consulted.<br />

Pitch Diameter Tolerances: Pitch diameter tolerances for Classes 2C, 3C <strong>and</strong> 4C for various<br />

practicable combinations of diameter <strong>and</strong> pitch are given in Table 11. The ratios of the<br />

pitch diameter tolerances of Classes 2C, 3C, <strong>and</strong> 4C are 3.0, 1.4, <strong>and</strong> 1, respectively.<br />

Application of Tolerances: The tolerances specified are such as to insure interchangeability<br />

<strong>and</strong> maintain a high grade of product. The tolerances on the diameters of internal<br />

threads are plus, being applied from the minimum sizes to above the minimum sizes. The<br />

tolerances on the diameters of external threads are minus, being applied from the maximum<br />

sizes to below the maximum sizes. The pitch diameter tolerances for an external or<br />

internal thread of a given class are the same<br />

Limiting Dimensions: Limiting dimensions for Centralizing Acme threads in the preferred<br />

series of diameters <strong>and</strong> pitches are given in Tables 8b <strong>and</strong> 8c. These limits are based<br />

on the formulas in Table 8a.<br />

For combinations of pitch <strong>and</strong> diameter other than those in the preferred series the formulas<br />

in Tables 8b <strong>and</strong> 8c <strong>and</strong> the data in the tables referred to therein make it possible to<br />

readily determine the limiting dimension required.<br />
