FAQ:

Q: What is a thread gauge used for?

A: Thread pitch gauges are used as a reference tool in determining the pitch of a thread that is on a screw or in a tapped hole.

Q: Why to use a thread snap gage?

A: Because they have some advantages that should be considered when deciding which tool to use to measure your parts. The Thread Snap Gage is ideal for gauging components produced in high volume in all types of material. They check parts faster than GO/NOGO ring gages. Thread snap gages have a GO and a NOGO portion similar to thread ring gages.

Q: What tool is used to cut threads inside a hole?

A: A tap cuts threads on the inside of a hole, to accept a machine screw or bolt. Taps can also be used to restore an internal thread that has been damaged or to cut a new, larger thread in the case of severe damage or stripping.

Q: How do you measure thread diameter?

A: Other Considerations. If you are measuring Imperial bolt thread size, you’ll need to record the measurements as thread diameter followed by a hyphen, then the thread per inch measurement. For metric bold thread size, the formula is the thread diameter, followed by the “x” symbol and then the thread pitch number.
