Description / Abstract:
Purpose:
This SAE Aerospace Standard (MA) provides recommended
dimensional data for screw thread undercuts for straight "MJ"
metric screw threads in accordance with MA1370.
Application:
The thread undercut data included in this document are primarily
designed to provide a clearance for threading tool runout either
where the thread is in a blind hole or here the thread is close to
an adjacent shoulder. These thread undercuts are not recommended
for bolts, screws, or studs which are required to be necked; e.g.,
reduced shank contiguous to the thread, to improve their tensile,
impact, and cyclic load performance.
