    thread depth measurment

    Thank you all for the input. Ajack1, you are not missing anything. The engineer signs off on the lot because the screw doesn't bottom out. Unfortunately, the inspector makes life hell for the rest of us until the review board dispositions the parts and engineering does sign off. A simple ECO...

    thread depth measurment

    thread depth measurment

    We have tried the second method. QC recognizes this as a good method, and uses it, but says "varying chamer depth affects the measurment". We have also ground a screw to as close as our visual inspection can determine to the start of the first full thread. from there "counted" the # of turns on...
