ASME B18 DIGITAL FASTENER LIBRARY
ASME B18 D IGITAL F ASTENER L IBRARY The ASME B18 Digital Fastener Library provides a parametric, graphical interface in which design engineers configure and retrieve ASME B18 fasteners (or PINs). The "PIN," or Part Identifying Number, is created as fasteners are configured within the ASME B18 Digital Fastener Library. Retrieved PINs can be output to text, web, or as 2D and 3D native CAD part files. The library supports nearly 100 percent of the native CAD systems commercially available worldwide, with direct integration to AutoCAD®, Autodesk Inventor®, Pro/ENGINEER®, CATIA®, Solid Edge®, SolidWorks®, NX® and most others. BASED UPON THE ASME B18.24 STANDARD, WHICH HAS BEEN... APPROVED BY THE AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARDS INSTITUTE (ANSI) ADOPTED BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (US DOD) The 18-digit B18.24 PIN is also ideally suited for use as a CAD part filename in any mechanical CAD/CAM software program. For enterprise users, the ASME B18 Digital Fastener Library integrates with enterprise ERP and PLM systems via the PARTsolutions enterprise application suite. The "just in time" access to standard fasteners is ideal for customers in single or multiple-CAD design environments. ASME B18.24-2004 (Supersedes ASME B18.24.1, B18.24.2, and B18.24.3) Part Identifying Number (PIN) Code System Standard for B18 Fastener Products The ASME B18 Digital Fastener Library is comprised of several product modules. ASME B18 D IGITAL F ASTENER L IBRARY ASME B18 PIN Configurator with B18 Material Selector Interactive fastener specification tool that provides design engineers a simple, graphical environment in which to fully define an ASME B18 fastener, including material, finish, geometric and performance properties. An interactive 3D fastener preview assists the user through the configuration process. The result is a valid B18 fastener PIN.

SOLUTIONS PART SOLUTIONS CAD I NTEGRATIONS FOR ASME B18 F ASTENERS PARTsolutions technology allows seamless placement of configured B18 fasteners into virtually any commercially available CAD system. ASME B18.24 PIN CODE SYSTEM OVERVIEW The new ASME B18.24 Part Identifying Number (PIN) Code System Standard for B18 Fasteners provides users with the ability to specify and identify all ASME B18 fastener products using a single 18-digit PIN code system. It is intended to provide all users with the capability to identify externally threaded, internally threaded, and nonthreaded fastener products. The B18 PIN is a self-contained code, with distinct identification linkage to individual ASME B18 fastener product standards. ial Pla ti Pa ng, C ssi vat oatin ion g, Fea tur es r the Siz /O ter Ma Len gth er on dC Fas rea Th Ba ten PIN se ASME B18 PIN e fig The PIN code concept provides for direct traceablity back to the applicable B18 standard. ______________________________________________________________________________ AEB02C250A50AP1A11 AEB02 p o w e r e d b y SOLUTIONS p o w e r e d b y C 250 A50 Material/ Finish Additional Features AP1 A1 1 7 ld Fie 5 6 ld Fie ld Fie 4 ld Fie 3 ld 2 ld Fie Fie ld Fie 18 digits Founded in 1880 as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, today's ASME is a 120,000-member professional organization focused on technical, educational and research issues of the worldwide engineering and technology community. In 2005, A SME celebrated 125 years of continued service and leadership setting the standard for professional engineering societies worldwide. Thread Configuration & Size ______________________________________________________________________________ 1 ASME B18 Fastener Family & Type The standard, together with the interrelated cross referenced ASTM F16 fastener product standards, provide complete dimensional, physical, mechanical, and performance specifications for inch and metric B18 fasteners and includes quality assurance and packaging requirements for government, commercial and industrial fastener usage. The ASME B18.24 PIN system is a self-contained code, which covers 788 unique B18 fastener types from 72 ASME B18 source documents. The PIN code system is fully parametric, uniform across all fastener types, and is intended as a digital alternative to the traditional plain text fastener product callout prescribed in the "Designation" or "Ordering" section of the applicable source document. The new ASME B18.24 standard supersedes ASME B18.24.1 (1996), ASME B18.24.2 (1998) and ASME B18.24.3 (1998).
