    Formula to predetermine length growth from thread rolling

    The thread roller ground the blank diameter to the pitch diameter and then rolled the threads. The pitch and major diameters on the parts are correct so there is no room to play with the ground blank diameter.

    The part looks like a typical hex head bolt and is 2.800" OAL. The part grew approx. .010-.012 on the OAL after thread roll!! As I said before the thread is 1-3/4" lond but there is a .125 wide diameter smaller than the thread minor on the front end (no threads) so the front ind is not cupped or...

    Drawing practice

    I have a round machined part which has 2 features that were drawn 90° apart but had no relationship or tolerance noted. One was a milled flat and the other a drilled hole. We have made many similar parts over the years and always assumed there was no relationship since none was noted and never...
