  1. Hey Anas,

    However you have included all basic ANSI codes, I feel that this list should include more ANSIs like 50N, 51N, 67N, 27D, 27R, 32P, 32Q, 51LR, 50BF, 59N, 78PS, etc.. Still lots of codes (advanced) are there, which we will come across in the near future. This will help all engineers in this field.

    Hope you will consider the above...

    Thanks & Regards...
