On threaded features checked with a GO / NO GO thread gage for conformance:
Is it aceptable for the NO GO side of the gage to start into the threaded hole?
Is there a specification / standard that addresses this?
The rule of thumb here has been two turns maximum is all-right.
If the threaded feature is half an inch deep I can see this as not being a problem. But when the threaded feature is going through a wall thickness that allows for only a limited number of threads this seems contradictory.
Thanks in advance for helping to enlighten me.
