Tapered threaded plug gauges for pipes have a difference in the number of notches.
R is 2 stages, PT is 1 stage.

Rc and Rp gauges are indicated as "R" ・ No street/stop setting ・No distinction between machine use and inspection - No precision |

Tapered threaded ring gauges for pipes do not differ in the number of notches like plug gauges.
However, the thickness of the gauge itself is thicker for PT than for R.
R is because the reference diameter position is set on the gauge end face, and PT is because the reference diameter position is inside the gauge.

There is no difference in the number of notches. There is a difference in the thickness of the gauge ・No distinction between machine use and inspection - No precision |

Tapered screws for pipes do not have the same distinction as parallel screws due to thread accuracy. There is only one.
Since the shape and tolerance are different, both the plug gauge and the ring gauge cannot be shared.
Use the thread type gauge in the drawing instructions.
