- This step-by-step video will teach you how to correctly identify thread pitch and size using calipers, a pitch gauge, and a thread identification guide. Topics covered include a visual guide to individual parts and names (crests, roots, flanks), the difference between tapered (dynamic) and straight (parallel) threads, the purpose of each (plus the need for sealants), followed by proper measurement procedures of both thread types.

Great information. The demo at first is showing someone applying Teflon tape backwards. Much easier to unroll the tape with tension. Thank You for the video.
YOU ARE FANTASTIC....!!!I DIDNT KNOW THE DIFFERENCE ON TAPPERED AND PARALLEL ONES..NOR THE PROCEDURE TO FIND IT OUT EASILY...!!AND EVEN WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT HOW TO DETERMINE THE NOMINAL DIAMETER ON TAPERED...I USED TO MEASURE AT THE EDGE...!!THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Linus has changed so much
Home Despot just told me that the best I could do was to use callipers and hope for the best.
Thank you for taking the time to make this.
Scary thing is Home Despot sells thread pitch guages🤦♂
Swagelok, Great Content. The animation and explanation were perfectly in sync. Thanks for uploading!
The Rock loves Swagelok product.
The Rock says: This is very useful in terms of training.
Great video, used some of the info to write a guide in Russian language, for those how are lost when it comes to identifying the thread on their barrels...
Someone will make a lot of money if they can develop an app that will let your phone camera scan the thread and then give the readout of all it's details without having to use a tool and look it up in a book. Guess I am just that lazy.
You can Do it!
I'd still measure to make sure!
This answered a lot of questions for me
Thank you swagelok, Nice clear and concise video.Please post more. Best of luck.
Nice, easy to understand through this video.
Very good video easy to understand what thread pitch and sizing determine.
Is there anything longer from this ?
Very clear and professional. Thanks
Thank you very much Sir for this video. Additional idea and it help me a lot.
Also your animation is very 👍❤️
Thanks simple and easy to follow
What is the part number for the thread identifiers. The local swagelok distributor told me that all 3 have to be ordered as a kit and the kit is like $80, I dont really need a digital measuring tool but the guide and thread measuring tools would be super handy. I love swagelok products and I buy swagelok for personal projects and at work for projects.
Why don't manufacturers just mark the components with the correct description?? (the thread pitch and size).
Extremely helpful.
Do you have to add the measurement of a grip in the bolt measurement? How would you know based on reading the measurement of a bolt that the bolt has a grip? Hope I explained myself properly sorry if I didnt.

So will these thread pitch gauges work on sheet metal and wood screws as well as on machine screws?
Thank you for a straight forward presentation
Excellent effort by SWAGELOK. Cheers for the Online Vdo content .

@@swagelok many thanks,appreciate your help
Good 👍 & best information
So a 10x1.25 tap that comes in a tap and die set is different than the tap used for thread repair?
Educational and well presented. Thank you
Thanks a lot, great explanation!
Hi, where I could download table for measurements bolt and nut . Can you take link
Use a search engine. You need to get good at finding your own information and this will be useful practice.

Swagelok makes great products. We use them on many of our modular process systems. Keep up the great work!
screw pitch gauge is used to check the pitch of the screw at about the range
excellent video.
I threaded my first pipe today but the original ones that were already done that I bought were 20mm on the outside and is being sold as DN15 from China. The pipe that I bought at the home depot afterwards is 21.3mm
Used 1/2" die and wrench with oil but it was not easy. Do you think I'm killing my die or is the 20mm not the normal standard?
After I threaded the pipe it does fit although the outside differs more than 1mm. It's more for a Steampunk artwork so it doesn't have to do something important like heating.
Wow . Thanks very much. Did not know it was so Simple.
thanks in advanced.thread sizes are confusing.good video.
Excellent information. Thank you. 😊
Excellent video!! Though I must say that at 0:56, the procedure is wrong. But great video nonetheless!!

M10X1.25X70 7T. What does the 7T mean.
NUT- HEX M6x1 7N. What does the 7N mean.
Hi Andrew, Your local sales and service center will be able to answer your question. You can find their contact information here: products.swagelok.com/locator
Great video very detailed.
What does the 1.5 or 1.25 on the thread mean? For example a 10x1.5, what is the 1.5?
this video is actually quite confusing as he doesnt really make clear what form of measurement is being used at that instant and/or the images that were used are not matching what he is describing like female or male end ?
and to answer your question just incase someone else comes across this M11x1.5 or M10x1.0 is in metric format and the 1.5 is the thread pitch from crest to crest
is there any place that i can take my bolts and get professional to measure them.. I live dallas, TX

Best Brands in world
good video and information
very informative !
Thanks for educate me
The worst thing i hate is that i do mechanic jobs on american cars in sweden and american sizes are so different than europe standards. So my screws never fit so i always have to specially order a bolt from someone.
so cheeky the way you throw in your product at the end
Why not , they provided you with a very informative video for free. You are a douche bag limey.
Please convert tap inchi who pitch
Hi Afif Desmond, your local sales and service center will be able to answer your question. You can find their contact information here: products.swagelok.com/locator
This is all good information, but what I really want and need is a guide that specifies the thread on each and every Swagelok fitting. What is the thread on a 1 inch VCR male connector? Who knows? I sure as heck don't, and I need to know, like, now.
Nice one!!!!
Buen video como consigo el manual en español... Perú gracias!!!
Thank you swagelow....please information manual in spanish
Excelente vídeo y traducción.
Great thanks
Threads look the same
Tries to screw a bolt:

Hi N s, Your local sales and service center will be able to answer your question. You can find their contact information here: products.swagelok.com/locator
Good
thanks
is m4 - 0.7mm the same as 4mm - 0.7mm ? www.amazon.ca/Metric-Taper-Plug-0-7mm-Pitch/dp/B00ANY5I5A if not, whats the diffrence between these 2?
They are the same. M4 stands for metric 4, which is 4mm. The 0.7mm is the pitch. The difference between the two taps is; one is a taper tap, and the other is a plug tap. A taper tap is pointer than a plug tap. There is a third type of tap called a bottoming tap which is less pointy again. I'm sure a quick google will show you when to use each, but they all tap the same size whole; for an M4 0.7mm bolt.
yup, figured it out :P thanks for the response though !
You dont need a special tool for pitch just calipers. 13 pitch = 13 threads per inch
good
its good.
Was here
Can you sell me that guide? I need to learned how ti check Npt threads to know if they would fit properly.
Didn't discuss coarse vs fine thread.
that's "pitch"
There aren't coarse or fine threads in hydraulics. Your thinking of nuts and bolts.
super
So what if you're broke and you don't have a caliper and thread pitch tool? Then wtf am I suppose to do, guess?
this video fuckcing ruled
the video image is too poor, you need to fix it more
