Diameter Pitch

Thread Pitch Diameter Display
A display with 2 studs of the same thread pattern and pitch diameter but with a varying minimum and maximum diameter of the thread.

Purpose of Project:
Two threads with different diameters but having the same pitch diameter might visually appear to be of different sizes. However, both are essentially the same and will fit in the same tapped hole (provided the hole is tapped according to the respective size). This can cause confusion as two threads with different pitch diameters but the same thread diameter will appear to be of the same size but will not fit in the same tapped hole. Therefore, when working with threads it is important to fully understand this concept. We aim to achieve this visually and logically in this page.
