DESCRIPTION:-


The T8-8-300mm screw is a specific type of threaded fastener designed for various applications, typically in machinery, robotics, or other mechanical systems.

The length of the screw is specified as 300mm, indicating its overall measurement from end to end. This length is crucial as it determines how deep the screw can penetrate or how much it can fasten, making it suitable for applications requiring a longer reach.

.The specifications of the T8-8-300mm Only screw:-

  1. Diameter (T8): 8 millimeters (mm). This measurement refers to the outer diameter of the threaded portion of the screw.
  2. Lead: 2 millimeters (mm). The lead represents the axial distance the screw advances in one complete rotation.
  3. Length: 300 millimeters (mm). This measurement indicates the total length of the screw from end to end.
  4. Material: Stainless Steel 304
  5. Thread Pitch: Implied by the lead value. Since the lead is 2mm, it's also the pitch of the screw, representing the distance between successive threads along the screw's axis.
  6. Thread Form: The screw typically features a standard metric thread form, ensuring compatibility with other components designed to accommodate screws of this specification.
  7. Surface Finish: The screw may have a specified surface finish, such as a smooth polished finish or a coated finish for enhanced corrosion resistance or lubrication.
  8. Tolerance: The screw may have specified dimensional tolerances to ensure precise fit and compatibility with mating components.
  9. Pitch: The pitch of a screw refers to the distance between adjacent threads along the screw's axis. It signifies the linear distance the screw advances axially in one complete rotation. In the case of the T8-8-300mm screw with a pitch of 8mm, it means that the distance between each thread along the screw's axis is 8mm.
