The pitch diameter (or thread thickness) tolerances for an external or internal thread of a known class are the same. Compared to square threads, disadvantages of the Acme thread form are lower efficiency due to higher friction and some radial load on the nut (angular offset from square). Acme screw threads are now extensively used for a variety of purposes. For example: would denote two starts, as the lead divided by the pitch is two. They offer high strength and ease of manufacture.

However, there is a Centralizing Acme-thread standard (also specified in ASME/ANSI B1.5-1997) which caters to applications where the threads are not radially supported, where the roots and crests of opposing threads are designed to come into contact before the flanks do under radial loads. ACME screw threads are perceived as a bilateral transverse motion screw thread. 3 0 obj {g|kAV;B <> Trapezoidal threads are defined as follows by ISO standards: where Tr designates a trapezoidal thread, 60 is the nominal diameter in millimeters, and 9 is the pitch in millimeters.
These diameters and pitches have been chosen to meet current requirements with the least number of items in order to condense amount of inventory of both tools and gages. The tolerances on diameters of the external thread are minus, being applied from the maximum sizes to below the maximum sizes. The tolerances specified in this standard are relevant to lengths of engagement not greater than twice the nominal major diameter. [7] While metric screw threads are more prevalent worldwide than imperial threads for triangular thread forms, the imperially sized Acme threads predominate in the trapezoidal thread form. This adds the requirement that the sum of the allowances (clearances) and tolerances on the major diameters of nut and bolt be less than the sum of the allowances on the pitch diameters (PD). There are 3 different forms of ACME Screw Thread: General Purpose ACME.

It is easier to cut with either single-point threading or die than the square thread is (because the latter's shape requires tool bit or die tooth geometry that is poorly suited to cutting). The Acme thread form has a 29 thread angle with a thread height half of the pitch; the apex (or crest) and valley (or root) are flat. Q+ Nfu =z6hW"x8(kv}?

The Acme thread was proposed by Albert Man Powell, then president of the Powell Planer Co. of Worcester, Massachusetts. The Acme thread was developed in 1894 as a profile well suited to power screws that has various advantages over the square thread,[note 1] which had been the form of choice until then. The ACME screw thread may be used in assemblies with the internal thread rigidly fixed and movement of the external thread in a direction perpendicular to its axis limited by its bearing or bearings.
