lb. The screw is 3 in. in outside diameter and has four square threads per inch.
(a.) Determine the force required at the rim of the 12-in.-diameter hand wheel,
assuming that the coefficients of the thread and collar friction are 0.125 and that the mean
(b.) Determine the maximum compressive stress in the screw, the bearing
(d.) Determine the size of the two bolts required to fasten the straightener to the
base, assuming the allowable stress is 8,000 psi. Neglect tightening-up stresses.

Description of materials:
CF 1045 is a medium carbon steel is used when greater strength and hardness is
desired than in the “as rolled” condition. Extreme size accuracy, straightness and
concentricity combine to minimize wear in high speed applications. Turned, ground and
polished.
Introduction
AISI 1045 steel is a medium tensile steel supplied in the black hot rolled or
normalized condition. It has a tensile strength of 570 - 700 MPa and Brinell hardness
ranging between 170 and 210.AISI 1045 steel is characterized by good weld ability, good
machinability, and high strength and impact properties in either the normalized or hot
rolled condition. AISI 1045 steel has a low through-hardening capability with only

sections of size around 60 mm being recommended as suitable for tempering and
60 based on factors such as section size, type of set up, quenching medium used etc.
Chemical Composition
AISI 1045 steel lacks suitable alloying elements and hence does not respond to the nit
riding process.
