  2. 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.

  3. Motor soft starter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_soft_starter

    A motor soft starter is a device used with AC electrical motors to temporarily reduce the load and torque in the powertrain and electric current surge of the motor during start-up. This reduces the mechanical stress on the motor and shaft, as well as the electrodynamic stresses on the attached power cables and electrical distribution network ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve)

    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 ...

    The 'Monobloc' type was available from 1955 with designations 375, 376 and 389 [9] The more modern Concentric, developed and introduced for the 1967 Model Year, was initially designated 600 and 900. [2] The 600 series had bore sizes of 22mm, 24mm and 26mm, being known as 622, 624, and 626 respectively.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Model_T_engine

    Such a monobloc design was an uncommon practice when T production started in 1908. It lent itself to mass production , showing the Ford company's prescient focus on design for manufacturability . The head , however, was detachable, which not only aided Ford in manufacturing but also made valve jobs (cleaning, grinding, or replacement of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monobloc

    Monobloc may refer to anything made of a single block or casting. Thus: Monobloc engine, an internal combustion engine with the cylinder head and block formed as one unit; Monobloc (chair), a type of light-weight chair made of one piece of injection-moulded plastic; Also: Monobloc, a 2005 Argentine film

  8. List of drill and tap sizes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_drill_and_tap_sizes

    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.

  9. Dry lubricant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dry_lubricant

    Primary grade synthetic graphite can approach the good lubricity of quality natural graphite. Natural graphite is derived from mining. The quality of natural graphite varies as a result of the ore quality and its post-mining processing. The end product is graphite with a content of carbon (high grade graphite 96−98% carbon), sulfur, SiO 2 ...
