Register for free BSW is an imperial-unit-based screw thread standard, devised and specified by Joseph Whitworth in 1841 and later adopted as a British Standard. It was the
world’s first national screw thread standard, and is the basis for many other standards, such as BSF, BSP, BSCon, and BSCopper.
British Standard Fine (BSF) is a screw thread form, as a fine-pitch alternative to British Standard Whitworth (BSW) thread.

It was used for steel bolts and nuts on much British machinery, including cars, prior to adoption of Unified, and later Metric, standards. For highly stressed conditions, especially in motorcycles, a finer thread, British Standard Cycle (BSC), was used as well. Tolerances should be considered when designing products. Values related to drilling and
tapping can differ significantly depending on factors such as operating temperature and material. Optimas are a full-service supply chain and manufacturing solutions provider.

thread was the world's first national screw thread standard devised and specified by Joseph Whitworth in 1841. Until then, the only standardization was what little had been done by individual people and companies. Some of the companies' in-house standards spreading a bit within their industries. Whitworth's new standard specified a 55° thread
angle and a thread depth of 0.640327p and a radius of 0.137329p. Where p is the pitch. The thread pitch increases with the diameter in steps specified on a chart. The Whitworth thread system was later to be adopted as a British Standard to become British Standard Whitworth (BSW). An example of the use of the Whitworth thread is the Royal
Navy's Crimean War gunboats. These are the first instance of mass-production techniques being applied to marine engineering. The following quotation from the obituary from The Times of 24 January 1887 to Sir Joseph Whitworth (1803–1887) shows. The British Standard Fine (BSF) standard has the same thread angle as the BSW but has a finer
thread pitch and smaller thread depth. This is more like the modern "mechanical" screw and was used for fine machinery and steel bolts.
The British Standard Cycle (BSC) standard which replaced the Cycle Engineers' Institute (CEI) standard was used on British bicycles and motorcycles.
It uses a thread angle of 60° compared to the Whitworth 55° and very fine thread pitches. British Standard Pipe Parallel Thread, with sealant compound,(parallel, cylindrical), external = G.
