Accessories

This is the accessory section for thread cutting. You will find wall racks that keep combination spanners tidy and thread pitch gauges that check metric or Whitworth threads. Before you order a spanner holder, count the slots you need. If you intend to mount it on a wall, compare the maximum load rating. For a thread gauge, select the range that matches your work, for example metric from 0.25 to 6.00 mm or Whitworth. These tools make your bench safer and more efficient.

Accessories for thread cutting

Pick the right holder for your wrenches

A wrench holder keeps your open-end spanners and sockets together. Check the number of slots. That way you know if your whole set fits. If you mount the holder on a wall, mind the load capacity. A sturdy holder prevents things from falling.

Thread gauges for every thread type

With a thread gauge you quickly check whether a thread is metric, inch or Whitworth. Choose the range you need. A metric gauge from 0.25 to 6.00 mm covers most common sizes. For inch work you take a separate gauge. This prevents you from grabbing the wrong die or tap.

What to watch when ordering

Check that the gauge follows the right standard. A double gauge with 52 blades combines metric and Whitworth. That saves space in the drawer. Always measure the outer diameter of the screw. That way you know you use the correct blade.

These accessories belong with threading tools. If you use a gauge to restore a damaged thread, see thread repair. For cutting new threads you need taps and threading dies, and a sturdy tool holder keeps them steady during the job.
