    Thread Engagement Length Calculation

    Uploaded by

    Venkateswaran venkateswaran
    The document calculates the minimum thread engagement length required between a screw and tapped hole based on their material properties. It provides values for the ultimate tensile strength, yield strength, stress area, pitch, and diameters of the screw and tapped hole. The minimum engagement length is calculated using equations that consider these values and factors of safety to ensure the connection does not fail under tensile loads. The calculated minimum engagement length is 28.7 mm.
