Abstract
A test stand for testing male threaded fasteners comprises a holder for the fastener which locates a rotating male fastener adjacent to a target bore in a target body holder. The target bore is positioned at an angle to the fastener by rotating the target body holder. If the fastener meets manufacturing specifications, it engages the target bore threading and causes the target bore and fastener to become aligned by the rotation of the target body holder. A test stand for testing female fasteners operating in the same way locates a rotating female fastener adjacent a target stud in a target stud holder.
