    thread depth measurment

    All three methods will work to varying degrees , however +/- .005 on a thread depth seems kind of tight to me. The only way I can think of holding +/- .005 would be to thread mill them. As to the varying chamfer depths , what up with that? Are these parts being made on a drill press ? You may...

    420F stainless steel

    Does anyone out there have any experience with 420F? What are its advantages over 300 series stainless? I understand that there aren't many mills state-side that will produce it
