Pitch of bolt thread Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pitch of Bolt Threads = (Nominal Diameter of Threaded Bolt-Core Diameter of Threaded Bolt)/1.22687
p_b = (d_b-d_c')/1.22687
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pitch of Bolt Threads - (Measured in Meter) - Pitch of Bolt Threads is the distance between two adjacent threads on a bolt.
Nominal Diameter of Threaded Bolt - (Measured in Meter) - Nominal Diameter of Threaded Bolt is the diameter equal to the external diameter of the threads or the overall diameter of the bolt.
Core Diameter of Threaded Bolt - (Measured in Meter) - Core Diameter of Threaded Bolt is defined as the smallest diameter of the thread of the bolt. The term “minor diameter” replaces the term “core diameter” as applied to the thread.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Nominal Diameter of Threaded Bolt: 10 Millimeter --> 0.01 Meter (Check conversion here)
Core Diameter of Threaded Bolt: 8.5 Millimeter --> 0.0085 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

p_b = (d_b-d_c')/1.22687 --> (0.01-0.0085)/1.22687

Evaluating ... ...

p_b = 0.00122262342383464

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00122262342383464 Meter -->1.22262342383464 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

1.22262342383464 ≈ 1.222623 Millimeter <-- Pitch of Bolt Threads

What is a fastener?

A fastener or fastening is a hardware device that mechanically joins or affixes two or more objects together. In general, fasteners are used to create non-permanent joints; that is, joints that can be removed or dismantled without damaging the joining components.
