Hello gents,
We have recently rejected a part where internal thread M20x2.5-6H Left Hand thread is not acceptable.
When gauged using thread No-Go gauge, it enters as far as gauge will go (enters 6 turns).
Our Thread gauge is not calibrated, but effective diameters on gauge (18.367mm(Go) & 18.600mm(NoGo)) - when checked with calibrated thread parallels & micrometer seem OK.
My question here is will this be considered as a valid rejection?
Is it the correct way to check with external instruments the effective dia and make sure non calibrated gauge is OK to use?
In our case where we don't have a calibrated gauge, what other options do we have? - one that does come to mind is to borrow the suppliers calibrated gauge..
Regards,
Mustafa
