This comprehensive new reference, featuring information extracted from Modern Machine Shop's Handbook for the Metalworking Industries, provides 600 large, easy-to-read pages of text, tables, and diagrams featuring in-depth coverage of all aspects of thread systems, threading methods, and threaded fasteners and their capabilities. Special attention has been given to the wide variety of available machining operations and tools exploited in the creation of threaded fasteners, including unusually detailed coverage of methods used to determine the ideal hole diameter for tapping operations. An important addition to this book that is not contained in the parent Handbook is a discussion on aircraft fasteners (including rivets, which are sometimes substituted for threaded fasteners) that are employed in several industries. Every effort has been made to provide current, useful, and practical knowledge that an engineer, designer, or machinist normally consults in order to select a suitable machining operation and fastener for a particular engineering application.
