Hi All,

We are designing some support stays, w/ rod ends on each end and have a question about thread design. What radius should you put on an externally threaded part after the thread has been completed to avoid crack propogation? We have a 10/32 thread in this example...(Incidentally the material is Titanium in this case)

Regards,

MJ
