I'm looking for an assembly that looks and functions just like a plane spherical bearing, but has a threaded inside diameter (5/8-18 UNF). This will be used in an adjustable attach fitting for a one-off lifting fixture, so I only need 12 of these. Anyone know of any suppliers who make something...- wahoo88

Sizing a shaft for a V-Roller
The forces acting on the roller surfaces will be normal to the pipe, not vertical. Therefore, there will be a horizontal component to these forces which will produce an additional tensile stress in the shaft. Does the shaft really have an abrupt change in diameter at the outer edges of the...- wahoo88

Shear stress in a bolt
Oakley, To determine the safety factor, divide the yield or ultimate strength of the bolt (in MPA, or psi), by the calculated stress in the bolt (in the same units). So for your situation, assuming single shear, threads not in shear, m10, class 8.8 bolt: .6(660 MPa) SFy =...- wahoo88
