Pitch of screw Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads
P_s = L/n
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pitch - (Measured in Meter) - Pitch is the distance between screw threads and is commonly used with inch sized products and specified as threads per inch.
Lead of Screw - (Measured in Meter) - Lead of Screw is the linear travel the nut makes per one screw revolution and is how ball screws are typically specified.
Number of Threads - Number of Threads is total no. of threads in a screw.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Lead of Screw: 188 Meter --> 188 Meter No Conversion Required
Number of Threads: 15 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_s = L/n --> 188/15

Evaluating ... ...

P_s = 12.5333333333333

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

12.5333333333333 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

12.5333333333333 ≈ 12.53333 Meter <-- Pitch

Slope of thread in multi-threaded screw

Go Slope of Multiple Threads = (Number of Threads*Pitch)/(pi*Mean Diameter of Screw)

Angle of inclination of thread

Go Thread Angle = atan(Pitch/(pi*Mean Diameter of Screw))

Slope of thread

Go Slope of Thread = (Pitch)/(pi*Mean Diameter of Screw)

Pitch of screw

Go Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads

Pitch of screw Formula

Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads
P_s = L/n

What is pitch?

Pitch is the distance from one point of a thread to the corresponding point on the next
thread. It is measured parallel to the axis of the screw.

How to Calculate Pitch of screw?

Pitch of screw calculator uses Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads to calculate the Pitch, The Pitch of screw formula is defined as the ratio of lead of the screw and number of threads on the screw. Pitch is denoted by P_s symbol.

How to calculate Pitch of screw using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Pitch of screw, enter Lead of Screw (L) & Number of Threads (n) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Pitch of screw calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1.733333 = 188/15.

FAQ

What is Pitch of screw?

The Pitch of screw formula is defined as the ratio of lead of the screw and number of threads on the screw and is represented as P_s = L/n or Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads. Lead of Screw is the linear travel the nut makes per one screw revolution and is how ball screws are typically specified & Number of Threads is total no. of threads in a screw.

How to calculate Pitch of screw?

The Pitch of screw formula is defined as the ratio of lead of the screw and number of threads on the screw is calculated using Pitch = Lead of Screw/Number of Threads. To calculate Pitch of screw, you need Lead of Screw (L) & Number of Threads (n). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Lead of Screw & Number of Threads and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.
