Curt =E2=80=93 is there such a thing as a thread gauge for BA threads?  =
I think not as the TPI on a BA fastener is truly weird.

=20

Despite having a few thread gauges, taps and dies for most BSW, BSF, =
CEI, NHF, UNC, some BA and some BSPP, and a number of references, I =
still occasionally get a stumper that does not fit anything.  BTW, if =
anyone is contemplating buying taps and dies, I highly recommend Tracy =

Gentlemen,

=20

Here's what I consider the minimum for fasteners if you have =
British/European cars, and work on them. See attached photo...=20

=20

I also have a very limited but nice set of BSF, BSW and BA taps and dies =
made in Germany of very high quality HSS.  Also a set of BSF Helicoils =
in 1/4", 5/16" and 3/8".

=20

Cheers,

Curt
