Is it possible to share G, PF, and tools?
Tools such as taps, threaded round dies, and other machining tools can be shared.
However, the gauge must be as instructed in the drawing.
This is because the dimensional tolerance on the gauge side, not the screw, is different, and the pass/fail judgment may differ between G and PF gauges.
