Machinery's Handbook 31st Edition: 2020

Overview

Note that the large print edition measures 7" x 10" and the type is the size of normal reference works. It is not an enlarged print edition for sight-impaired readers; for such readers, we recommend the Machinery's Handbook 31 Digital Edition, which enables on-screen enlargement of text and data.
