Thread gauge set for metric threads 60° No name model 0595142

Thread gauge set for metric threads 60° No name model 0595142 is a compact inspection tool designed to check the profile angle and pitch of metric threads with a 60° thread form. The set allows visual and tactile comparison of male and female threads to established metric standards, enabling quick verification of conformity for bolts, nuts and threaded components in workshops and maintenance environments. It is intended for use where a simple, reliable method of thread identification and pass/fail checking is required without use of specialized measuring instruments.

Advantages

The thread gauge set provides a straightforward way to confirm thread profile and pitch using physical reference blades, reducing the need for complex measuring devices. Its compact format makes it easy to carry and store in toolboxes or inspection kits. The tool supports both external and internal thread checking by matching the gauge teeth to the component threads, allowing rapid assessment of correct pitch and 60° profile conformity.

Suitable for

• Workshop inspection of bolts and nuts
• Maintenance checks on threaded assemblies
• Quality control of small-series manufactured threaded parts
• Field verification where portable tools are required

Key specifications

• Thread form: metric 60° profile
• Function: profile and pitch comparison for external and internal threads
• Material: hardened steel or similar durable metal suitable for repeated contact checking
• Format: multi-blade set allowing comparison across common metric pitches
• Portability: compact design for storage in toolboxes or inspection kits

How to use

To use the thread gauge set, select the blade that corresponds to the expected metric pitch or visually match successive blades until one fits the thread crest-to-crest spacing. For external threads, engage the gauge teeth with the male thread and assess full contact across the profile. For internal threads, insert the appropriate blade or use the internal-contact face to verify pitch and profile. If the gauge seats evenly without gaps or rocking, the thread pitch and 60° profile are consistent with the reference blade. Clean threads before inspection to avoid false readings from dirt or debris.

Usage recommendations

Use the gauge in combination with visual inspection and basic dimensional checks where required; avoid using excessive force when fitting blades to prevent damage to fine threads. Store the set in a dry place and protect the blades from corrosion and mechanical impacts to maintain accuracy over time.
