on the flanks of the notches.
3.2 Measure the distance from the notch closest to the end of the standard to each of the
other notches.
3.3 The distance between any two adjecent notches shall be accurate within a tolerance of
+- 0.001” and between any two non-adjacent notches within a tolerance of +-0.0002.
3.4 The nominal distance between notches shall be as specified in API Spec 7 and 5B as
applicable.
3.5 Any standards exceeding the tolerances specified in paragraph shall be reworked and
recalibrated or scrapped.
