FAQ
1. What is the difference between models?
Models differ by thread size and TPI. UNEF threads provide finer pitch than UNF and are used in high-precision assemblies.
2. Accuracy vs Resolution — what applies here?
- Accuracy: Defined by ANSI B1.1 Class 2A tolerance
- Resolution: Not applicable, as this is a limit gauge
3. Manual vs Digital — where does this product fit?
This is a manual NO-GO inspection gauge, used for pass/fail validation rather than numerical measurement.
4. Which industries typically use this product?
- Aerospace
- Precision engineering
- Defense manufacturing
- High-precision assembly industries
5. Is customization available?
Yes, customization options include:
- Special UNEF thread sizes or pitches
- Different tolerance classes (e.g., 3A)
- OEM branding and packaging
- Calibration certificates (traceable)
