New Bolting: Stud & Nuts (rather urgent)

 
Parents
  • Hi everyone,

    I know that this topic is constantly raised but I have looked through the posts and still can't work out the concept of bolting.
    I have always used old bolting in PDMS but now with E3D I want to use the new bolting method.
    Looking at the Piping Catalogues and specifications training manual it looks like you're supposed to add both the stud and nuts to a bolting spec and then this is referenced by the piping spec.
    But then I am not sure which SBOL I am supposed to use. The sample catalogue has a mixture of old and new bolting and is a mess.
    I am currently using the BLIS /BLIST-METRIC-HD-NUT as the Bltref for my bolting spec and for the SBOLs typically its the following:

    Name /MSTUD-HD16
    Type SBOL
    Lock false
    Owner /BLIST-METRIC-HD-NUT
    Nstdblength /M16
    Bdiameter 0
    Length 0mm
    Noff 0
    Xtralength 3mm
    Bitems NUT NUT
    Bitlength 16mm 16mm
    Bltweight 0kg

    and this is completely different to the older types of SBOLs i am used to

    Name /ISBBD
    Type SBOL
    Lock false
    Owner /I#150.STUD
    Nstdblength /1/2
    Bdiameter 12.7
    Length 57mm
    Noff 4
    Xtralength 0mm
    Bitems unset
    Bitlength unset
    Bltweight 0kg

    which one am i supposed to use? are there any other SBOLs like /MSTUD-HD16 but without the requirement for nuts? coz I don't want the stud and nuts to come out as 2 separate items but just like "stud with 2 nuts"
    sorry for the waffle and for covering a much discussed topic
