The Faithfull Screw Pitch Gauge is an essential precision tool designed for engineers, mechanics, and maintenance professionals who require rapid and accurate identification of thread pitches. Featuring 55 precision-machined leaves, this dual-sided gauge eliminates the guesswork when identifying internal and external threads, ensuring a perfect match for fasteners, bolts, and tapped holes every single time.
In any engineering, automotive, or fabrication workshop, identifying the correct thread pitch is critical to preventing stripped threads, damaged components, and costly downtime. The Faithfull Screw Pitch Gauge with 55 Leaves offers a reliable, professional-grade solution to this everyday challenge. By providing a comprehensive selection of precisely machined profiles, this tool allows you to instantly verify thread configurations on both vintage machinery and modern components.
The engineering of this gauge focuses on user efficiency and long-term durability. Each of the 55 folding leaves is manufactured to precise tolerances, ensuring a snug, light-tight fit against the corresponding thread profile when performing a check. Because it accommodates both Metric and American National standards, this single tool effectively replaces the need for multiple independent gauges, decluttering your workstation and streamlining your workflow.
Using the tool is straightforward: simply select a leaf, test it against the thread in question, and look for a perfect mesh without gaps. The leaves fold neatly into a protective steel casing when not in use, shielding the delicate thread profiles from the impacts, dust, and debris common to workshop environments. A integrated locking tension nut allows you to adjust the friction of the blades, keeping your selected leaf securely extended while keeping the rest safely out of the way. Whether you are sorting through mismatched fasteners, reproducing a component on a lathe, or verifying incoming stock, this gauge delivers the accuracy required for high-standard mechanical assembly. Investing in a dedicated pitch gauge saves invaluable time and safeguards the structural integrity of your assemblies by ensuring every fastener is correctly matched to its thread.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this tool be used to measure both internal and external threads?
Can this tool be used to measure both internal and external threads?
Yes. The slim, precisely profiled design of the leaves allows you to check external threads on bolts and studs, as well as internal threads inside nuts and tapped holes.
How do you read the sizes on the gauge?
How do you read the sizes on the gauge?
Each individual leaf is permanently stamped with its specific pitch or threads-per-inch measurement, allowing for quick and unambiguous identification while you work.
Does the gauge have a mechanism to keep the leaves from flopping around?
Does the gauge have a mechanism to keep the leaves from flopping around?
Yes, the tool features a central locking nut on the casing. This can be tightened or loosened to adjust the tension of the leaves, ensuring they stay tucked away or locked out during use.
