- Dead-blow hammers are specialized sledgehammers designed to deliver maximum momentum on impact to pulverize the intended target.

This is illustrated in Figure 4, which shows photos of pressure-sensitive film studies of flange nuts and screws. This review of ½ inch and M12 flange hardware was undertaken when a customer test discovered a flange-head screw with a convex surface (contact at the edge of the clearance hole). An example is shown in the bottom image of Figure 3. In addition to increasing surface area, increasing the contact diameter of the fastener increases frictional resistance to applied torque. This reduces the bolt tension generated for a given torque. In this case, the tension reduction of substituting flange-head for hex-head fasteners is approximately 12 percent.

Also called asbestos cement sheathing, “asbestos lumber” was not made out of wood at all. Instead, it was marketed as a superior alternative to wood. It was fireproof and electrically nonconductive, yet still soft enough to be worked like natural lumber. Asbestos lumber was used as a base for roofing and siding materials such as shingles and false brick facing.

As cable television proliferated in the region, Pakistan under General Musharraf also opened up the broadcast media. Large media houses, confined to print until then, were among the first to launch satellite and cable channels. A greater interdependency was evident as the same reports began to be used across multimedia channels by the same group.

Removing material weakens the thread while shifting material elevates the density of the thread at crucial points, specifically at its root, thus enhancing its quality. 

(4) Frame color. The previously black chromoly frame is powdercoated in Factory Team Orange and gets orange frame guards to match.

Once clipped into place, the adapter (and enclosure) can be easily unclipped again or secured with two screws (supplied), offering additional protection against removal.

Small agencies which could not afford to hire copywriters would hire them on a part-time basis. People such as Mr Enwary who worked for the British Council is an example; Anwar Mooraj an English copywriter; and Shahid Salamat, a great Urdu copywriter at Lintas.

In the good old days, the agency was perceived as the expert on consumer behaviour, a reservoir of creativity and the shrewd negotiator making deals with different media owners on behalf of their clients. A centralised role was important to synergise at least parts of the advertising value chain.

Reading magazines is one of the sedentary pursuits still considered a preference of many. Even though most of the magazines are enjoyed online, the content being more up-to-date and lively, printed magazines have a market of their own.

Cyclone screws are also available as SEMS assemblies. Adding a washer under the head enables the fastener to span larger holes, protect fragile surfaces and distribute load.
