Mechanical Engineering Design Tools

Here you can find an assortment of mechanical design tools intended to help reduce the monotony of mechanical engineering.  The hope is that these guides and help you located frequently need information and will help streamline your design process.

There are tables, formulas, shortcuts and advice.   All these should be taken as aids, but never accepted without your own validation of the mechanical design tools within the context of your own application and your own analysis.

If there are any areas where you need further assistance, please feel free to contact us to recommend a new design tool.

400 Series Standard O-Ring Sizes 350-439 (AS 568)

Below is a table of 400 series standard o-ring (0.275″ CS) sizes.  This table actually starts in the 300 series (0.210″ CS) but finishes in the 400-series (0.275″ CS).

If you don’t understand the sizes, check out O-Ring Sizes.  If you don’t know how to use the O-Rings, check out O-Ring Design for Static Sealing.

Unified Screw Threads – Fine (UNF)

Unified Screw Threads – Fine are the most common type of fine thread found in the US.  Fine threads are useful for imparting a higher tensile load to the bolt with lower assembly torque required.  Unified screw threads consist of a 60-degree thread profile.

The table below shows the major and minor diameters, thread pitch (given in threads per inch, tpi) and finally the diameter  area which is necessary for bolt tensile strength calculations.

If you need a screw that is less sensitive to over-torquing, consider using a Unified Screw Thread – Course (UNC) instead of the Unified Screw Thread – Fine (UNF).
