For
any other diameter pitch combination not covered under
BSW & BSF series, use WHITS like e.g. 1" – 12 Whits
(M).
For
Whitworth gauges with diameter in mm use designation,
like W30-12 (M)
Note:
To be dispensed with wherever possible.
|
| CLASS
OF FIT |
|
For

|
| FORM

The
included thread angle for Whitworth is 55 degree and
the threads are fullform for GO gauge, i.e. we have
to maintain minor diameter for plug gauges and major
diameter in case of ring gauges and radius at crest
and root of threads as per the specification.
