First calibrate the micrometer by dialing the spindle to zero and adjusting the anvil until it is flush against the spindle. Measure the screw until the ratchet begins to click and take the first reading. This reading can then be compared to a machining book to verify the pitch diameter.
pitch = 1/Threads per Inch So for a 1/2 - 20 thread the pitch is .1
when lead of the screw is equal to the pitch it is called single threaded screw
the pitch is the inverse of the the thread count per inch, or the distance between each thraed pitch = 1/N so for a tap of 32 threads per inch pitch is 1/32 = 0.03125 inch
Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer. Use the given formula: Least Count (L. C) = Pitch/no. of divisions on micrometer barrel(thimble) where, Pitch = distance travelled by thimble on linear scale in one rotation. Hi, heres how you calculate least count of a micrometer.

This is a tool that is used to measure the pitch diameter of a screw. This tool looks like a standard micrometer except that the anvils are specially configured to reach into the screw thread groove and touch the pitch diameter of the screw thread. The screw thread micrometer does not measure any other aspect of the screw thread. It does not measure the: pitch; threads-per-inch; major diameter; minor diameter; flank angles; lead; helix angle.

It means that there is .5mm from a particular spot on one thread to the corresponding spot on the next thread
One full revolution of the thimble on a micrometer typically equals the pitch of the thread on the spindle, which is usually 0.5 mm. This means that each full rotation of the thimble will advance the spindle by 0.5 mm.
The total movement indicated on the thimble of a micrometer after one full revolution is equal to the pitch of the micrometer screw. The pitch is the distance that the spindle advances axially in one complete turn of the thimble.
A micrometer typically has 40 threads per inch on the screw, which means it has 40 pitch threads along its length. This allows for very precise measurements to be taken with the micrometer.
First calibrate the micrometer by dialing the spindle to zero and adjusting the anvil until it is flush against the spindle. Measure the screw until the ratchet begins to click and take the first reading. This reading can then be compared to a machining book to verify the pitch diameter.
least count of a micrometer= pitch/no of division on the circular scale
The pitch of the precision ground spindle screw on a micrometer is typically 0.5mm.
A "screw pitch gauge" is used to measure screw pitch. Typically, the gauge has a number of indented templates for each standard pitch. Matching a particular template to the screw or nut gives the pitch. You can also use a measuring device (ruler, micrometer, etc.) to measure a group of threads and then "do the math" to estimate pitch. Accuracy depends on your ability to accurately measure length and count threads.
