 SCREW JACK
Screw Jack is a portable device consisting of a
screw mechanism used to raise and lower
the load.
There are two types of screw jacks most
commonly used,
1. Hydraulic
2. Mechanical
 Parts of Screw Jack
1.Frame
2.Screw
3.Nut
4.Handle
5.Cup
6.Set Screw
7.Washer
 FRAME
Most of the times frame is conical in shape and
hollow internally to accommodate a nut and screw
assembly.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS- CASTING

For all this purpose to select a cast iron as material

for frame.

A FG200 material is used

 SCREW
Screws is nothing but a member having Helical
groove around periphery of solid bar.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS- Square threads usually
turned on lathes using single point cutting tool. It
leads us to use free cutting steel . tensile strength of
560 N/mm2 and 10% elongation (0.5% C, 1.2% mn,
0.14 S)
Thread profile ;- the thread profile of the screw is
always square because it has higher efficiency than
the trapezoidal thread and there no chances of
radial thrust i.e no bursting
 NUT
As we know there is always a relative motion between
screw and nut, which cause a friction.
The friction causes wear if some material is used for
screw and nut it will wears both components. So one
out of two has to be softer than other so as to ease of
replacement.
The size and shape of screw is costlier than nut , so
generally we use softer material for nut than screw.
Phosphor Bronze is ideal material for nut which is a
copper alloy having 0.2% phosphor which increases
tensile strength.
 CUP
It is used to hold object or part.
Shape of cup is again complex and so economical
to manufacture by casting process.
Material will be for manufacturing cup is cast iron
with grade FG200.
 HANDLE

Handle is a long circular bar used to rotate

nut.
Handle is subjected to bending moments.
So plain carbon steel with 0.3% carbon i.e.
30C8 can be used to manufacture.
 Set Screw
Screw are generally made from low to medium
carbon alloys.
 Washer
Washers are used in fastners to save the
material of machine which would otherwise
damaged due to bolt.
Generally material used for washer is a mild
steel.
Rolling of mild steel alloy in sheet of desired
thickness of washer and then making of
punching process as per required
dimensions washer is made.
