This SAE Parts Standard provides dimensional and quality assurance requirements for 1/4 through 2 in sizes of studs in the following configurations in standard materials used for ship system applications: a. continuous thread studs in UNRC and 8UNF series; b. double end studs (clamping type) where both ends are of the same thread series (UNRC or 8UN). Also called bolt-studs. (These are suitable for mating with nuts or the set end may be installed with anaerobic thread locking compound.); and c. double end studs (interference thread type) with the nut end having UNRC or 8UNR series thread and where the tap end has NC 5 HFS interference fit thread forms. Also called a tape end stud. A complete metric companion to this document is provided in sAE J2271M, therefore no metric equivalents are presented.
