Hello All,
I am currently in a discussion with one of my supplier's in regards to measuring Full Thread Length on an external Thread. The Supplier is currently placing the Thread Gauge onto the external thread, and once it bottoms out, they are measuring from the bottom of the gauge to the top/bottom of the external thread.
I disagreed and stated that to measure the Length of the Full Thread, you have to begin at the "Peak" of the first full thread and measure to the "Peak" of the last full thead to get the accurate length.
My question is. Am I 100% accurate? Or is my supplier? I cannot find any tools/diagrams online to depict where to begin/end when measuring Thread Length. Any insight or help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
