ASME B18.2.2-2015 pdf free download.Nuts for General Applications: Machine Screw Nuts, Hex, Square, Hex Flange, and Coupling Nuts (Inch Series).
3.2 Corner Fill
A rounding or lack of fill at junction of hex corners with chamfer shall be permissible, provided the width across corners is within specified limits at and beyond a distance equal to 17.5% of the basic thread diameter from the chamfered face.
3.3 Tops of Nuts and Chamfers
Tops of nuts shall be flat and chamfered. Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser or in this Standard, nuts in sizes in. nominal size and smaller shall be doublechamfered. I.arger size nuts shall be double-chamfered or have washer-faced bearing surface and chamfered top.
3.3.1 Single-Chamfered Nuts and Washer-Faced Nuts. Diameter of the chamfer circle shall he equal to the maximum width across flats within a tolerance of
—15%. The length of chamfer at hex corners shall be from 5% to 15% of the basic thread diameter. The surface of the chamfer may be slightly convex or rounded.
3.3.2 Double-Chamfered Nuts. Diameter of the chamfer LircIe shall be equal to the maximum width across flats with a —10% tolerance.
3.4 CountersInk
Unless otherwise specified in this Standard, tapped holes shall be countersunk on the bearing faces. The maximum countersink diameter shall be the thread basic (nominal) major diameter plus 0.030 in. for in. nominal size nuts and smaller, and 1.08 times the basic major diameter for nuts larger than in. No part of the threaded portion shall project beyond the bearing surface.
3.5 Nut Thickness
The nut thickness shall be the overall distance, measured parallel to the axis of nut, from the top of the nut to the bearing surface and shall include the thickness of the washer face where provided.
3.6 Washer Face Diameter
Unless otherwise specified, the outside diameter of washer face shall be equal to the maximum width across flats with a —10% tolerance.
3.7 Slots
When specified in the respective dimensional table, slots shall be normal to nut flats. Contour of bottom of slots shall be at manufacturer’s option. Requirements for gaging slots are specified in Mandatory Appendix I.
3.8 True Position of Tapped Hole
3.8.1 Hex Nuts. The axis of tapped hole in hex nuts shall be located at true position with respect to the axis of nut body within a tolerance zone having a diameter equivalent to 4% of the maximum width across flats for 11/2 in. nominal size nuts or smaller and 6% of the maximum width across fiats for nuts larger than i1/ in., regardless of feature size.
3.8.2 Square Nuts. The axis of tapped hole in square nuts shall be located at true position with respect to the axis of nut body within a tolerance zone having a diameter equivalent to 10% of the maximum width across flats, regardless of feature size.
3.9 Bearing Surface Perpendicularity
Bearing surface shall be flat and perpendicular to the axis of the threaded hole within the specified full indicator measurement (FIM) limit indicated in the tables. See Nonmandatory Appendix C for measurement procedure.
3.10 Threads
3.10.1 Thread Standard. Threads shall meet the requirements of ASME B1.1.
3.10.2 Thread Class. Unless otherwise specified, threads shall be Unified Standard, Class 2B.
3.10.3 Thread Series. Thread series on nuts may be coarse (UNC), fine (UNF), or 8 thread series (8UN).
3.10.4 Thread Gaging. Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, gaging for screw thread dimensional acceptability shall be in accordance with Gaging System 21 as specified in ASME Bl.3, Screw Thread Gaging Systems for Acceptability.
3.10.4.1 Thread Gaging of Jam Nuts. Due to the three turn allowance and limited number of threads in Jam nuts, NOT GO thread plug gages are not a reliable method For thread acceptance. Unless otherwise speci. F ied by the purchaser, jam nut thread acceptablity shall be based on acceptance of the GO thread plug gage and nonacceptance of the NOT GO cylindrical plug gage to inspect minor diameter.
