ASME B18.31.2-2014 pdf free.Continuous Thread Stud, Double-End Stud, and Flange Bolting Stud (Stud Bolt) (Inch Series).
For definitions of terms relating to fasteners or features thereof used in this Standard, refer to ASME B 18.12.
DIMENSIONS
(a)All dimensions in this Standard are given in inches, and apply before coating, unless otherwise spedfied. Table I contains the dimensions for continuous thread studs. Table 2 contains the thread length dimensions for double-end (clamping type) studs. Table 3 con. tains the thread length requirements for tap end studs. Table 4 contains the body diameters for double-end (clamping type) studs and tap-end studs.
(b) Symbols specifying geometric characteristics are in accordance with ASME Y14.5.
6 BODY DIAMETER
The diameter of the body on studs that arc not threaded the full length shall be within the limits for D specified for the applicable configuration. Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, the reduced-diameter body or full body may be supplied at the option of the supplier.
6.1 Reduced Diameter Body
The maximum body diameter is the minimum major diameter of the thread as defined in ASME Bl.l. The minimum body diameter is the minimum pitch diameter of the thread as defined in ASME Bil Dimensions are provided in lable 4.
6.2 Full Body
The maximum body diameter is the same as the nominal diameter of the fastener. The minimum body diameter is the minimum major diameter for the applicable threads as shown in ASME B1.l, Table 3A. These diniensions are provided in Table 4.
NOTE: If the two ends of a stud have different threads, the mimmum body diameter will be based on the thread with smaller minimum mapor diameter.
7 STUD LENGTH
The difference between “continuous thread stud” and “flange bolting stud (stud bolt)” is that the length of continuous thread stud is defined by the overall length from end to end while the flange bolting stud length is defined from the first full thread on one end to the first full thread on the other end.
7.1 Overall Length of Continuous and Double-End Studs
The overall length, L,, of the continuous and double- end type studs is the distance, parallel to the axis of the stud from one end to the other end, measured to the extreme condition on each end. The length tolerances in Table 5 are applied to this dimension.
7.2 Nominal Length for Flange Bolting Studs (Stud Bolts)
The nominal length, L on flange bolting studs (see Fig. 1) is the distance parallel to the axis of the stud from the first full thread on one end to the first full thread on the other end. Dimensions for U are the same as those in Table 1. The length tolerances in Table 6 are applied to the L dimension.ASME B18.31.2 pdf free download.
