Thread form accuracy is important if two connections are to make-up properly. Using a Thread Profile Gage provides a quick check of the thread to ensure that the form is correct. The Thread Profile should be used on every connection to ensure the first imperfect thread was deburred fully.
Thread form is defined as its profile in an axial plane for a length of one pitch. Most importantly, verifying thread form is a recommended inspection for API connections and ensures form accuracy.
BESTO provide precision tapered thread profile gages for the quick identification of product thread forms. Specify the connection which is to be inspected when ordering. Special profiles will be quoted upon request. More details please contact: sales@bestogages.com
