    For both of these rules of thumb (85%/90% and major minus pitch), the tap drill size yielded is not necessarily the only possible one, but it is a good one for general use. The 85% and 90% rules works best in the range of 1 ⁄ 4 –1 in (6.4–25.4 mm), the sizes most important on many shop floors.

  3. Monobloc engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monobloc_engine

    De Dion-Bouton engine with monobloc cylinder heads, but cylinders separate from crankcase c. 1905 [1]. A monobloc or en bloc engine is an internal-combustion piston engine some of whose major components (such as cylinder head, cylinder block, or crankcase) are formed, usually by casting, as a single integral unit, rather than being assembled later.

    Tap tails are normally 1 ⁄ 2 " or 12 mm in diameter for sinks and 3 ⁄ 4 " or 19 mm for baths, although continental Europe sometimes uses a 3 ⁄ 8 " (still imperial) size. The same connection method is used for a ballcock. The term tap is widely used to describe the valve used to dispense draft beer from a keg, whether gravity feed or ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

    Dry-powder tumbling is an effective application method. The bonding can be improved by prior phosphating of the substrate. Use of free powders has its limitations, since adhesion of the solid particles to the substrate is usually insufficient to provide any service life in continuous applications.

  7. Screw extractor - Wikipedia

    There are two types: one has a spiral flute structure, commonly called an easy out after the trademarked name EZ-Out; [clarification needed] the other has a straight flute structure. [ 1 ] Screw extractors are intentionally made of hard , brittle steel , and, if too much torque is applied, can break off inside the screw that is being removed.

  8. Cutting tool (machining) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutting_tool_(machining)

    Rotary cutting tools include drill bits, countersinks and counterbores, taps and dies, reamers, and cold saw blades. Other cutting tools, such as bandsaw blades, hacksaw blades, and fly cutters, combine aspects of linear and rotary motion. The majority of these types of cutting tools are often made from HSS (High-Speed-Steel).

  9. Thermosiphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosiphon

    Thermosyphon circulation in a simple solar water heater (not a working model; there is no water supply to replenish the tank when the tap is used). A thermosiphon (or thermosyphon) is a device that employs a method of passive heat exchange based on natural convection, which circulates a fluid without the necessity of a mechanical pump.
