The meehanism behind nut and bolt arrangement also works for screw gauge. In case of nut and bolt mechanism, with rotation of bolt, it has translational movement also. In one complete rotation of bolt, tip of bolt moves by a linear distance equal to linear distance between two consecutive threads on the screw, known as pitch in case of screw gauge, the circular scale is divided in several parths. The ratio of pitch and total number of divisions on circular scale is known as least count.
