     Determine the type of screw thread based on the following measurements:  .215 diameter measured across the screw threads.  Length of the screw is 0.375\"  Total number of threads is about 10. 
  
  Solution
Diameter = 0.215
Pitch = 1/ number of threads per inch = number of threads/ length of screw = 10/0.375 = 26.6
Only machine screws are identified with diameter and pitch both. Thus with the given information, we conclude that this thread type is machine screw type.
