🔍 Key Concepts

• How the thread dial indicator synchronizes the carriage movement with the lead screw so the tool re-enters the same groove each pass • The difference between numbered lines and unnumbered half-lines on the dial shown in Illustration GS-0084 • How dialing in for even-numbered threads per inch changes which marks are safe to use when engaging the half‑nut

💭 Think About

• Look at how many main (numbered) divisions and half (unnumbered) divisions are on the dial. What does that tell you about how many different start positions you can use? • Ask yourself: for an even TPI thread, will the tool line back up with the same groove if you engage at any mark, or only at certain marks that are spaced a specific fraction of a revolution apart? • Which type of mark—numbered or unnumbered—represents the positions where the carriage is exactly half a lead-screw revolution out of phase compared to the numbered marks?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm from the illustration that there are 4 numbered lines and 4 unnumbered half-lines, giving 8 equal angular positions on the dial • Be clear that the question is about even-numbered threads per inch (TPI), not about the numbers printed on the dial itself • Before choosing, decide whether even TPI threads allow engagement on all marks, or only on marks that are a specific subset of the 8 positions
