Hello,
I got 2 pcs. built for and assembly i'm building...
The first piece is a stainless threaded rod.
The second is a brass threaded fitting.
(both pieces have a custom thread, aka I can't buy a tap and chase them)
I press the brass fitting into an aluminum plate and the threaded rod goes through.
The problem I am having is that when I press the brass fitting into the aluminum plate, the end of it is squeezing together and not allowing my rod to thread through it.
I am using a .002 press fit, I don't think i can get too much looser or the fitting will spin in the aluminum...
Does anybody have any tips on how to fix this?
Thank You
Ryan Schmidt
