Description
Overview:
The Zeus Engineers Data Chart & Reference Tables - Metric is a compact, laminated 28‐page booklet designed for everyday use in drawing offices, toolrooms, and workshops. Produced by Zeus Precision Charts Ltd (ZEUS), a member of the British Standards Institution, it puts essential engineering data at your fingertips. The durable, wipe‐clean pages stand up to oil, swarf, and handling. Inside you'll find standard drill sizes and decimal equivalents, tapping drills and clearances for both metric and imperial threads, BS4500 tolerance information, hardness comparisons, jig‐boring coordinates for equally spaced holes, and long trigonometric tables. It is well suited to work with lathes, milling machines, pillar drills, grinders, sheet‐metal equipment, and general fabrication tools where quick, accurate reference is needed for measuring, machining, and setting tasks.
Key Features:
- Compact, pocket‐sized format with tough laminated pages for daily workshop use
- 28 pages of concise, practical data arranged for quick lookup
- Standard drill sizes with decimal equivalents to reduce calculation time
- Tapping drill sizes and clearance data for metric and imperial threads (imperial shown alongside metric for cross‐checking; convert to mm as needed: 1/4 in ≈ 6.35 mm, 1/2 in ≈ 12.70 mm)
- BS4500 tolerance guidance and hardness comparison charts for material selection and inspection
- Jig‐boring coordinates for equally spaced holes to speed up hole‐pattern layouts
- Allowances for sheet‐metal bending to improve forming accuracy and repeatability
- Morse taper reference for toolholding and spindle compatibility checks
- Extended trigonometric tables (sine, cosine, tangent, cotangent) for quick set‐ups and calculations
- Clear layout that helps reduce errors and supports apprentices and experienced engineers alike
Typical Applications:
Ideal at the bench, machine, or inspection area for checking drill sizes, tap sizes, thread clearances, and tolerances. Useful when laying out hole circles, setting Morse tapers, selecting feeds based on material hardness, or making quick trig calculations during milling, turning, drilling, fabrication, and jig or fixture work. Equally at home in maintenance, production, R&D, colleges, and on-site service kits.
