Threads per Inch and Thread Pitch Identifiers

Determine threads per inch and thread pitch on nuts, bolts, and other fasteners. Identifiers in a variety of sizes are riveted together in a fan design—pull one out and hold it against your threads to see if it fits. Once you’ve found a match, fold identifiers in to store them in your pocket or tool bag.
