Measuring Attachment — 55° BSW thread measurement head by Microtech Metrology

A Measuring Attachment designed for precise inspection of British Standard Whitworth threads, providing a defined 55° thread form reference for use with precision gauges and measuring stands.

• 55° BSW geometry for precise thread measurement
• Compatible with precision measuring instruments
• Suitable for threads with 8 mm pitch
• Made by Microtech Metrology for reliable results

Precise verification of Whitworth thread forms

This accessory provides a stable reference for thread checks based on the Whitworth profile. The 55° BSW angle corresponds to the classic British Standard Whitworth geometry, which makes the attachment ideal for repeatable verification of form and pitch on threaded components. Fitted to a suitable measuring device, the head offers a defined contact geometry that reduces operator interpretation and improves the comparability of results across inspection cycles.

Seamless integration into metrology routines

Designed as an accessory for precision measuring instruments, the head is a compact solution for extending existing test equipment without major modification. Its defined geometry and 8 mm pitch reference simplify setup and reduce measuring time per component, thereby increasing throughput in inspection processes. The accessory supports systematic checks in incoming goods inspection and in-process control, helping to maintain production tolerances and minimise rework.

Where this accessory brings practical value

The measuring head is particularly useful in workshops and quality labs that handle legacy or specialist fasteners using Whitworth standards. Adopted by maintenance teams, prototype shops and inspection benches, the accessory aids accurate documentation of thread conformity and supports traceable measurement workflows. When paired with a calibrated gauge or stand, the head contributes to reproducible results and clearer pass/fail decisions in serial inspections.

FAQ

What thread form is this attachment designed for?
The measuring attachment is designed for the British Standard Whitworth (BSW) thread form, using a 55° thread angle as its geometric reference.

Which pitch does the head reference?
The accessory references an 8 mm thread pitch, making it suitable for inspection tasks that require this specific pitch parameter.

Can the head be used with any precision gauge?
The Microtech Metrology attachment is intended for integration with precision measuring instruments and stands; compatibility depends on the mounting and gauge geometry.

Does the accessory replace calibration of the measuring instrument?
The head provides a defined contact geometry for thread checks but does not substitute instrument calibration; measurement accuracy remains dependent on the condition and calibration state of the primary gauge.

Is this suitable for production and laboratory inspection?
Yes. The attachment is designed to support both workshop-level and laboratory inspection routines where Whitworth thread verification is required.
