Editorial approach
Ruslan's articles are developed from practical catalog and product-identification work. Dimensional claims are checked against the standards and primary references named in each guide. US-facing articles use US terminology and distinguish Unified inch threads from metric threads rather than treating close dimensions as interchangeable.
Technical reference content supports identification and preliminary selection. It does not replace the governing drawing, current standard, manufacturer data or application-specific engineering review.
