    #80-6 roller chain, drive sprocket running max. speed

    Hello, We just received a gearbox with a chain drive ratio of 4.73:1. On top of this GEARBOX, there is a 4-speed transmission and a hydraulic motor to drive it. One of the most common combinations RPM/torque in this GEARBOX is 781 RPM / 681 FT-LB TORQUE (gearbox output) The question is the...

    A135-A ELECTRIC RESISTANCE WELDED

    HI, I haven't seen that many many companies use A135-A pipe for pressure piping applications. However after going through all calculations as per B31.3, using that specific pipe falls under code. (maximum design pressure 350 PSI), is there anything so obvious that I am missing?

    Class 300 nipple (sched.80) Vs thickness calculation

    Hi, I was hoping to get some help here. A class 300 nipple (2 in sched. 80) I chose for my design (Class 300), is capable of holding 1500 psig of pressure from (-29 to 66 Celsius). However when I calculate this nipple as per B31.3 having into account: 12.5% under tolerance allowance, 0.118...

    Air/Water Manifold considered a pressure vessel?

    Hello, Would an air/water manifold subject to 350 psi of pressure considered a pressure vessel? Basically the system has four 2 in pipe inputs all connected to a common 4in output. Rough dimensions and sketch attached. If this is considered a pressure vessel? Under which code should it be...

    BUTT WELD TEE

    Hello, I was hoping you could answer this simple question. According to ASME B16.9-2003 for factory made wrought butt welding fittings, the allowable pressure may be calculated as for straight seamless pipe... So for example if the pressure rating for a 4" A53B pipe sched.40 is 2581 PSI (from...

    Calculate max. allowable stress on a fillet weld in tension

    HI, What would be a quick way to verify the max. allowable stress in tension? The scenario is the following: A 3 in OD mechanical tubing joined to a 1 in thick plate, if I choose to have a 3/8 fillet weld all around the tube, what would be the max. allowable stress that this weld could tak...

    CIRCULAR / TOTAL RUNOUT EFFECT ON DIAMETER-SIZE

    Hope you can help me with this very simple question I think. I have a cylinder which OD.= 7.998+/- 0.001, if I want to stablish a total runout of .002", will this mean that the cylinder OD could be 8.001" if we take into account that the part was produced at 7.999" + .002" (runout)? Thank you...

    Male Plastic Polycarbonate M4 insert wont fit in an M4 hole made on an Aluminum plate.

    How do I make sure that both parts are going to fit properly (loosely)? The call out for the insulator thread is: M4 x 0.7 - 6g. The assembler has to re-tap every single aluminium plate to be able to fit both parts. The call-out for the threaded hole is : M4 x 0.7 - 6H. Is there a way to...
