Selection of 3-pin diameter:
In order to minimize the error in measurement of the pitch diameter resulting in the
semi-angle error of tooth type, the selected 3-pin diameter shall make the contact point
between the 3-pin and the tooth approach the pitch diameter as possible. The optimum
3-pin diameter is selected according to the following table:
