Interlocking :Torque =+ve.

(Friction angle >helix angle),
efficiency<50%.

Overhauling: Torque=-ve.
(friction angle <helix angle).
Efficiency>50%.

Efficiency of a self locking screw is 50%, for efficiency greater than 50% the screw is said to be overhauling screw.

Overhauling screw is a screw which has negative torque means (friction angle > lead angle).

No relation with efficiency.

Overhauling means motion of body without any load.

Pavan Kumar said:   1 decade ago
Overhauling screw has negative tangential force (friction angle < helix angle).

Why efficiency of a self locking is 50%? Can it be increase?

Irfan Jalse said:   1 decade ago
Self locking screw requires positive torque for advancement. Hence its efficiency is less.

What the screw is called when efficiency less than 50%?

Madhu said:   8 years ago
It is a self-locking screw.
