Just bought a =E2=80=9CWhitworth" thread pitch gauge from British Tool =
because I=E2=80=99ve begun to restore a BN1 and I need to confirm the 55 =
degree thread pitch angle on the Whitworth bolts.

It turns out that British Tool and Fasteners thread pitch gauge is not =
actually Whitworth, even though they say it is. And even though the =
owner, Jon Caswell, knows it is not the 55 degree angle that it is =
represented to be, he seems to think that is OK and doesn=E2=80=99t =
think he should reimburse me for any of the shipping, even one way.

Check out these photos comparing an American pitch gauge, 60 degree =
angle, to his =E2=80=9CWhitworth=E2=80=9D 55 degree angle guage.=20
 =20
