Hi . . anyone know of a site to download free or purchased thread specifications on large internal unified screw threads. 5"dia-4un
What I've seen go up to 4" dia only.

[plonky44]

work it out
.64 devided by TPI gives the depth

IE 4pi un
.64 Dev 4tpi=.160 depth per side.................
if it 4 TPI it is the same depth of thread as the 4inch UNC anyway]

5 inch minus .160-.160=4.680 root dia aprrox........

Yeah you don't really need charts but they do make things faster if you have them.

Just for added info. 100% thread contact you would have used .866, but I have never made 100% threads. I have done 95% in Aerospace once.

Plonky's reply is based on 3/4 full thread which is pretty much standard for thread contact.
