Description / Abstract:
Introduction
Purpose.
This point is offered as an alternative to the M point
(GMW3362), which is the GM Fastening Engineering approved strategy
to prevent cross threading occurrences of externally threaded
fasteners. The use of the non-propriety (NP) point style should be
limited and must be approved by Fastening Engineering.
Applicability. This standard specifies the
characteristics of NP points for external metric threaded fasteners
with coarse pitch M5, M6, M8, M10, M12, M14 and M16.2.
