Metrology of Screw Threads

Screw threads are a series of ridges having the profile of a helix. This helix profile runs continuously along the length of a uniform solid or a hollow bar of a circular cross-section at periodic intervals. These helix ridges are also formed over a conical bar. These continuous helical ridges are termed threads.
