  7. Thread pitch gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thread_pitch_gauge

    A thread gauge, [1] also known as a screw gauge [2] or pitch gauge, [3] is used to measure the pitch or lead of a screw thread. Thread pitch gauges are used as a reference tool in determining the pitch of a thread that is on a screw or in a tapped hole. This tool is not used as a precision measuring instrument, rather it allows the user to ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L._S._Starrett_Company

    In 1890, L.S. Starrett patented a micrometer with other improvements, transforming the rough version of this tool into a modern micrometer. [5] During the same year Starrett began making and refining saw blades, and continues to be a major manufacturer as of 2015. [citation needed] In 1895 Starrett patented the divider with trammel. [6]
