Meatball mania: the top 10 Ikea products of all time | Flat Torx Self Drilling Screw

I decided to put my fridge on the rear passenger side. This proved to be quite challenging, mostly because 90-degree angles don’t exist in trucks, but by mounting the fridge on a slider, I can simply open the truck door and pull the fridge out for a snack.

David Rodgers, an investigator with the Columbia Police Department, said the new property management company is “very pro-police” and has been easy to work with. Management has given officers the authority to place people who do not live there on a trespass notice.

Then, there were those great voices we still hear today, who either debuted or gained prominence on Radio Pakistan and include Madam Noor Jehan, Mehdi Hasan and Reshma. Another notable personality was Agha Nasir, who is considered a pioneer of Radio Pakistan and later served as Managing Director, PTV; he transitioned from radio to television with ease due to the training he received at Radio Pakistan.

The rise of consumer banking fed an almost insatiable urge among Pakistanis for brands in terms of automobiles (including Honda, Toyota and Suzuki), consumer durables and electronic appliances such as Haier, Orient, Pel, Super General and Waves. With the opening of the economy and the entry of foreign brands, banks capitalised on both, secured and unsecured lending with a ballooning portfolio of credit cards, personal loans, auto-financing and even mortgages.

Strangely, when we started testing our 2018 Husqvarna TC125, the engineers told us to change the gas/oil ratio again. They want Husky TC125 owners to run 50:1 and TC250 owners to run 60:1. We admit that the 60:1 ratio is better.

I disagree, a properly designed structure with aluminum extrusions can be very rigid. Well, as rigid as hollow aluminum can be. I have used a ton of it for various things (possibly quite literally)

Quarter inch British Whitwort wrench with a quarter inch American standard nut. Two cultures separated by nut sizes.

However, since the Phillips screw unequivocally sucks at its primary job (turning a screw into something without exploding), lots and lots of inventors set-out to design a better mouse-trap of a fastener. Unfortunately, they all did a really good job and no single useful standard has come out.

The fundamental issue in distributing bolt tension within the mating threads is the same as that with the head or nut face: That a large load must be dissipated over a small area. Two factors make the threaded area potentially more problematic. First is that the internal threads are sometimes provided as separate standardized elements (nuts) and sometimes by the manufacturer’s design (tapped holes).

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.
