The three flat gauges are used to set up a threading tool for thread chasing. They can also be used to double-check a center hole in the end of a piece that needs to be turned. The center of a 60-degree tail stock on a lathe. So, when drilling a center hole for the piece, make sure it's at a 60-degree angle with the tool.

I previously worked in quality control for metal stamping. This is an affordable tool that will meet nearly 100% of usual machine shop needs. br>Reducing the rating due to the use of small gauges, such as for metric pitch. The cut on 25 mm is poor. I'm not sure if I'll ever need it, so it's not critical. br>The plastic storage container is extremely useful.
It's adequate for identifying standard, metric, and British threads, fine and coarse, for the money. Upon arrival, all retaining nuts needed to be tightened. One of them is always loose because it isn't threaded properly. The product is appropriate for identifying threads because it is not a heavy-duty application. It has a plastic storage case, which I like.
They'd be useful, but the markings on the majority of the gauges are difficult to read.
Very low cost.
Too much: There are numerous threads to choose from. It takes a long time to find the right one. The threads in this gage could have been a little deeper than the actual threads on the bolts, giving the incorrect angle but making sorting easier on the eyes.
Although the gauges are a little small, they do the job.
