Thread pitch
The thread pitch describes the axial distance that a Threaded Probe travels in a Receptacle per revolution and is specified in millimeters (mm).
In contact technology, thread pitch is a key parameter for the precise positioning and adjustment of Threaded Probes in Test Fixtures. It influences the insertion depth, the adjustment accuracy, and the self-locking capability of the connection.
A small thread pitch allows for finer adjustment and greater self-locking, while a larger thread pitch enables faster insertion and removal as well as more efficient assembly in test adapter construction.
FAQ
The thread pitch directly affects the insertion depth and positioning of the Contact Probe, thereby contributing to stable and repeatable contact.
The application of a larger thread pitch occurs when quick assembly or frequent screwing in and out is required.
The thread pitch is specified in millimeters (mm) and is an essential parameter in the design of Threaded Probes and Receptacles.
