PezDog Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Hi there I am trying to get a CNC guy to make a small aluminium adaptor for a pole for a brush ... which we can then make lots of poles, lots of adaptors for lots of brushes !! The brush thread is commonly called a GERMAN thread - used by VIKAN and all European Brush and Cleaning Product companies (compared to ACME for America and China etc) ... The thread is also called the 'EUROPEAN THREAD' - for political reasons, no doubt. Anyway, it is a tapered fitting with a trapezoidal side profile, a fine thread pattern and about 24mmOD at the base, and 18mm at the top. Can anyone help me with a drawing or a definition that I can give this guy to program his machine ? He said he can't find it, and actually, I am 2 hours on google and I can't either .. But then .. I don't know how to use a CAD program !!! Cheers to anyone who can lend a hand in any way ... Perry Quote
ReMark Posted January 4, 2011 Posted January 4, 2011 Would this adaptor happen to be similar to the AD1 Angle Adaptor for connecting a brush to a pole? German thread http://www.inlandpacifichose.com/German.htm Quote
PezDog Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 Yes ... Exactly that !!! Can you help me .. ? Perry Quote
PezDog Posted January 5, 2011 Author Posted January 5, 2011 It is actually not this that I am looking for - it is to make the piece that inserts into the pole (some are around the pole) for this piece to screw onto the pole. The point is, I am in Shanghai, and every Carbonfibre factory has a different profile for the top pole section ID - and I am wanting to adapt each factory back to this, and the ACME standard tip - so we can add the AD1 Angle Adaptor to the end for the waterfed brushes ... so I need the drawing of this thread pattern for the Chinese CNC operator to match precisely ...

CADkitt Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 Something like this: http://www.cadcollege.com/tools/symbolen/Nen2356.htm it is the nen 2356 standard mostly used in EU (and I thought every where expect us...). Quote
PezDog Posted January 7, 2011 Author Posted January 7, 2011 does anyone have the full definition of this ? Quote
PezDog Posted January 7, 2011 Author Posted January 7, 2011 Hmm.. I have looked at that - this is a straight thread, and we are looking for a tapered thread pattern .. any further ideas, ? Quote
