This is indirectly. The nut diameter can be determined by measuring the posts at the ends. There is a shoulder on every post. The nut has two thread types (UNF, for fine thread, and UNC, for coarse thread) available. Find the nut and install it on the post. Basically, a fine thread is one where the nut fits all the way over the post and the shoulder. It is a coarse thread if the nut only goes over the post but not the shoulder. For finding the thread pitch, you must know the diameter of the nut, the size of the thread, and the chart at the bottom. In the case of metric we cannot use the gauge because it is only for American nuts. You must screw a metric screw into the nut, and then check the screw size on the screw chart. *br> The thread pitch is marked on a pattern of
Selected User Reviews For Nut and Bolt Gauge, UNC, UNF, with Internally Threaded Pitch (Internally Threaded)
New screw sizes and drill sizes gauges have just been delivered along with this one. Quite a quality product. Yellow with black printing is easier for me to read so that I picked it as the color I preferred. suggestion I would make is to fill in the etched graduations with black so the contrast would be high and the black would not wash off after use. This is due to the fact that the thread gauge is located on the "back" side. Unlike the rest of the plastic, the "text" has the same color as the rest. There is a yellow raised print on a yellow background. The details are very small and My hope is that the "text" will last as long as possible. I am certainly glad that I bought this product.
It is perfect for plain measurements. I don't think you need to hang around in the hardware store aisle anymore(eww,haha). Just buy a few bucks worth of it and stuff it in your drawer or toolbox you never know when you will need it. It would have been better to own one of these gauges many.
I really appreciated the nut and bolt gauge as it helped me go through all the nuts and bolts that I acquired throughout Despite my best efforts, the nut gauge was not as accurate as I would have liked. My reason for stating this is that I used the gauge on some nuts assuming they were fine or coarse threaded. Once I got the nut to fit with the bolt, I had to make sure the gauge was on or I had been using it As well as using the nut gauge, I checked the size of washers with it. As to the nut gauge, I found that it gave you an idea of the size, but it did nothing in comparison to what I learned about washers. Some washers were too large, so there wasn't enough room to fit them over the nut gauges. There are a few things that I would add to/change about the gauge, such as threaded bolts for checking nuts. The gauge would likely need to be made of metal, and I am sure there would be an additional cost. I might add the #12 bolt/nut. Having the ability to check washers would be nice.
The most common bolts, nuts, washers, machine screws, etc I have accumulated over time are UNC and UNF, and a few metric, and they have been stored in various I decided to label and sort them now that I am retired and have more time to do so. It proved to be a valuable tool. Despite the fact that the #8 nut gauge is not too accurate, I learned to use it in time. There are some difficulties with the thread pitch on the back as it is a little shallow, but it is still Despite the fact that there are more accurate gauges available for significantly higher prices, I find this unit to be very suitable for my needs. It has overall been a very pleasant experience for me.
For the purpose of determining thread pitch (counts per inch), I bought this, and it is pretty poor. There are two issues here. The plastic threads are very small and don't match up well with the Two, there are no words on the labels instead, they are just raised plastic that is very hard In addition to the labels, I enhanced them with black Sharpies. In my opinion, the gauges on the holes seem to be working. There was nothing impressive about what I saw. Apparently this is something that has to be made of metal (or much more durable plastic) in order to be useful, otherwise it will quickly wear out the plastic.
Despite the delay, the gauge arrived as promised and is useful for measuring bolts and screws. Although the thread portion cannot be used on the metric portion due to distortion and flattening, it is still usable on the inch portion.
I was able to measure the bolt from my generator oil pan using this tool. In my experience, rolling back and forth over the bulges of the different size gauges is the most effective way of using the thread gauge. When the bolt passes through the thread pitch gauge, it will be as if nothing had been Over the incorrect pitch gauge would have to be the bolt that rolls up and around it.
There are only a few complaints with these gauges, such as ambiguous measurements. A thread gauge does the job more quickly, but they do not get the job done as well. The addition of this feature makes it possible to quickly verify suspected diameters and thread pitches. Neither a good thread gauge nor a thread gauge indicator can replace one.
