Abstract

A modular angular alignment clocking mechanism employs a hollow housing, a threaded interface ring, and a compression spring. The threaded interface ring is inserted into the housing and is followed by the compression spring. The housing is configured to thread onto one cylinder. Another cylinder is then threaded into the threaded interface ring and torqued to specification after clocking.
