Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Alan Marconett : RE : looking for flanged ACME

2006-04-09 by Alan Marconett

Hi ?,

I've been looking in McMaster Carr.  Just not familiar enough with the 
parts.

It's a 12mm dia ACME thread.  Pitch is about .080", which is near 2mm, 
but not exact.  Inch is about 12.44, so I'm not sure what it is!

I keep looking.  The McMaster Carr prices are quite high!

Someone mentioned making an ACME tap from ACME threaded rod, maybe I'll 
try that.  With Delron or a similar material.

Another one I have is .375" and 16 TPI, but it's a little light.
