Model: Monogram drawing MBF3004 Rev U
Envelope model, not manufacturer CAD.Model details
MBF3004-6-850, manufacturer nominal. Simplified component model from Monogram drawing MBF3004 Rev U sheet 1. Manufacturer nominal: printed values, the mean where only two limits are printed. Flush heads hold the printed head angle; the head depth is derived. Not manufacturer CAD. Verify against the current drawing before use. One named solid per component as the drawing calls them out (NUT, SCREW, SLEEVE, INSERT and, where the drawing has one, DRIVE NUT). Features the drawing shows without a dimension are scaled from its figure and listed as scaled in the STEP header; threads are not modelled. Axis +Z, head up, z = 0 at the face the head bears on. STEP (AP214) is in inches; STL has no units and is written in millimetres.
