Question type

In some cases, it is desired to have an unequal distribution of the tolerances between the clearance holes and the threaded holes. In these cases, the total amount of tolerance resulting from the fixed fastener formula is distributed unequally.

Correct Answer

Explain a floating fastener assembly.

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

A floating fastener assembly is where two (or more) components are held together with fasteners (such as bolts and nuts), and both components have clearance holes for the fasteners. This type of assembly is called a floating fastener assembly because the fasteners can "float" (move) within the holes of each part of the assembly.

What is the modified fixed fastener formula for unequally distributed tolerances?

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

The modified fixed fastener formula for unequally distributed tolerances is: H = F + 2T or T = (H - F) / 2 Where: T = total position tolerance H = MMC of the clearance hole F = MMC of the fastener 2T=T1 +T2 Where: T1 = tolerance for the threaded hole T2 = tolerance for the clearance hole

View Answer

Fasteners have two common types of variation: straightness deviation and thread to shank (body) runout (____________________).

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

When using the floating fastener assembly, after the position tolerance zone value is calculated, it applies to each part in the assembly (if the clearance holes are the same hole size used in the formula).

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

True

When tolerancing a threaded hole, the projected ____________________ zone modifier should be specified in the position tolerance feature control frame to indicate that the tolerance zone applies outside the hole where the fastener passes through the mating part.

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

When using the floating fastener assembly, since the function is assembly, the MMC modifier is used in the tolerance portion of the position callout. This allows additional location tolerance as a hole departs from MMC.
