Grafting feedscrew (Q from a new guy)
#6
Thanks for the responses. Regarding the apparent difference in the threads, it is a bit of an optical illusion- the acme threaded shaft is sitting flat on the bench, whilst the square threaded one is tilted due to sitting on the flange at one end. That and the fact that the crest of the square thread is so much wider than the crest of the acme. They are both 1" 5tpi.
Sorting through the replies, I'm hearing bore it to 5/8 as deep as the gear teeth, make the male section about .0025 oversize, shrink fit plus loctite. If I were to pin it, what sort of pin is used? How is this done?
