11、 Standard BS 4084:1978 including Amend-ment 1 is technically identical to ISO-3161-1977 except for Appendix A which provides information for a 20 UNJ constant pitch series for diameters through 3 inches.The UNJ thread form,having the enlarged root radius in the external thread,was introduced for app
12、lications requiring high fatigue strength where working stress levels are high,in order to minimize size and weight in parts,as in aerospace applications and also for other designs in commercial products where stresses are critical.To meet these requirements,the UNJ external thread root radius is de
13、signed between 0.1501 lPto 0.18042P and the minor diameter of the mating internal thread is increased to ensure the necessary clearance.This Standard includes Classes 2A and 2B UNJ screw threads.Either Class 3 or Class 2 UNJ threads are appropriate for commercial applications commensurate with the f
14、atigue and stress levels required.It is not recommended that Classes 2A and 2B threads be used for aerospace applications.Only UNJ thread Classes 3A and 3B meet the requirements of Military Specification MIL-S-8879.NOTE:In what follows,the symbols H and h are used.H is defined as the height of the s
15、harp vee thread formed by extending the thread flanks until they meet.H is equal to 0.866025 times the pitch,P.The symbol h is equal to 0.75 times H and represents the theoretical height of the American National thread form.It is still used as the basis for the value called percent of thread.The UNJ
16、 thread form is the UN thread form modified to 9/16 H or 75%h basic thread depth which allows the 0.18042P maximum root radius in the external thread.The first known U.S.standard of similar thread form was the Society of Automotive Engineers Aeronautical Standard AS 82 published in March 1942,which is a modified American National thread form to 75%h basic thread depth and specifying 0.108P-0.18OP root radius in the external thread.This thread was symbolized NR,National Round,and was developed fo
