Metric & Imperial & US Screw Gauge SAE Whitworth 55 Degree & Metric 60 Degree & & US 60 Degree Thread Pitch Gauge for Industrial Measurement

Simple thread gauge. Works fine. Not expensive. Easy. The only potential problem might be losing it after use because of it’s tiny size when folded up. Not a terrible problem.

Works great would buy again.

I use it to determine thread pitch.

I saw "Metric & Imperial" and thought, ok, there will be normal freedom units. But I also saw Whitworth and thought, why not, can't hurt. But I think that the "Imperial" the description refers to is the Whitworth form - which if you think about it is a threadform that is not metric, i.e. it is _one of_ the "imperial" threadforms. That's what you get: metric and British Standard Whitworth.With that out of the way, I'm the perfect customer for this product because I already own a couple of perfectly functional thread gauges for normal American 60deg teeth per inch. I only lacked the metric part. And since I had normal American units covered, it seemed fine to add exotic antique British threads to my capabilities. I think that this Whitworth form (the first standardized threadform I believe) would be useful if you were an antique restorer/collector. Old bicycles, engines, machine tools, etc. had these threads. I think you could use this to check normal American hardware store bolts for threads per inch, but I would be cautious about holding it up to the light and trying to match the exact thread shape.The metric side, the reason I bought it, seems good. I even liked the fact that they stamped the German word for "metric" - if you live in the USA, using metric is like taking a foreign vacation to a nice place anyway.Some people complained about the visibility of the markings. My eyesight is normally not great for stuff like this yet I can see the markings with out my normal magnifier just fine. They are not weakly printed but appear to be durably stamped.I checked an M4, M5, and M6 coarse threads and they all seemed exactly correct. I can't attest that all of the values are good, but these are the most common three I'm concerned about.For the price, this tool is a bargain.

I didn't know there were so many different threads/pitches for screws and bolts;large and small pitch of same length and diameter, metric vs SAE, machine and wood screws and so forth.If you buy a few boxes of screws or bolts over time for work or projects or keep the extra ones from stiff you assemble soon you have a bunch of varying sized stuff in boxes.It's handy and cheaper to use the right size fsstener for the need or to replace a bolt with exactly the right thread without going to the hardware store or fumbling through a mixed-up box.That's where this gadget helps.Have you gone to the store looking to buy a replacement of 1, 2 or a few screws and had to search drawer by drawer to find a match?Not if you checked the threads with this deviceIt is a simple measuring set of saw tooths useful once in awhile but saving a lot of time when used.

The ChgImposs Metric & Imperial & US Screw Gauge SAE Whitworth 55 Degree & Metric 60 Degree, focusing on accuracy, precision, readability, and ease of use. The analysis considers the gauge’s strengths and weaknesses in various aspects.The ChgImposs Screw Gauge is designed to measure metric, imperial, and US screws, offering both SAE Whitworth 55 Degree and Metric 60 Degree options. This review evaluates its accuracy, precision, readability, and user-friendliness.Accuracy and Precision The ChgImposs Screw Gauge provides reasonably accurate measurements; however, it falls short in terms of precision. Users may find it challenging to obtain exact measurements due to the gauge’s inherent design limitations, impacting its overall utility in certain applications.Readability While the gauge offers a compact design, reading the values can be difficult, particularly in low-light conditions or for users with impaired vision. The small print and closely spaced markings may hinder the process of obtaining quick and clear measurements.Ease of Use The ChgImposs Screw Gauge’s ease of use is typical for compact gauges. Although its size makes it convenient for portability, the aforementioned readability issues and lack of precision may impede its overall usability.The ChgImposs Metric & Imperial & US Screw Gauge SAE Whitworth 55 Degree & Metric 60 Degree offers reasonable accuracy but lacks precision and has readability challenges. Its ease of use is typical for compact gauges. Users seeking a more precise and user-friendly gauge may want to explore alternative options.

Good measure exalt and strong metal.
