Gauges for testing ISO metric screw threads to BS 3543:1981, and BS 919:Pt 3:1968.
BS 3643 Pt1 and Pt2 specifies the fundamental deviations and tolerances for e.g. 5H, 6H, 6G, and 7H for internal threads, and 4h, 6g, 6e,8g for external threads.
BS 3643 comprises two parts. Part 1 provides information and data on the basic principles, and is based on ISO 965/1 and ISO 965/3.
Generally 6H/6g are regarded as “medium fit”. The nut and bolt deviations and tolerance zones are illustrated here.
Part 2 tabulates diameters of course, constant and fine pitch series threads, and is based on ISO 965/2.
NUT 5
BS 919: Pt3: 1968 contains the recommended gauging system for checking ISO metric threads in accordance with BS 3643. It is based on ISO 1502. The basic profile of the ISO threads is shown below.

BS 919 Pt3: 1968 specifies the limits for gauges for testing product thread. The basis for determining the gauge limit is the magnitude of the product tolerance. i.e. the larger the product tolerance, the larger the gauge limit regardless of diameter. The gauges recommended to be used are as follows:For testing internal product threads a double ended screw plug gauge (style E) may be used.
This gauge comprises a Go element which tests that the Major and Effective diameters are not too small (maximum material limit). It also test for pitch or flank errors in the product thread. The Not Go element tests only that the Effective diameter is not too large (minimum material limit). The Minor diameter of the internal thread can be checked separately using a double ended plain plug gauge. For testing external product threads Go and Not Go ring gauges or caliper gauges having Go and Not Go anvils may be used.
Wherever preacticable, external product threads should be tested by means of ring gauges as these provide a full functional test of all thread features: pitch, angle, thread form and size.
Screw Plugs
Gauges for testing products in the preplating condition can be supplied. For internal threads class 6G may be used as a pre-plating condition for 6H after plating. For external threads class 6e may be used as a pre-plating condition for 6g after plating. When ordering gauges for other plating conditions it is helpful to advvise either the effective diameters required, or the amount of plating to be applied.

The regular checking of gauges in constant use is important. Plug gauges should be checked by direct measurement of the Major and Effective diameters, using a Floating Carriage Measuring Machine or similar specialised equipment. Ring gauges may be checked by direct measurement, or preferably by using Go check and Not Go Wear check plug gauges, as specified in BS 919: Pt3: 1968.
