Thread Profiles

Written by Buschman

An image showing two examples of contour shapes in a metering rod thread profile. For lighter viscosities, a wider crest, as shown in the first shape below, may be best for extended rod life. Heavier viscous coatings are best applied with a contour shape that has a more open root with a narrow crest profile, like the second shape shown below.
