Gauges

Gauges are specialized tools used to measure and verify the dimensions of various types of workpieces. There are several different types of gauges, each designed for specific applications.

One of the most common types of gauges is the thread gauge. These gauges are used to measure the pitch, angle, and diameter of screw threads. They come in a variety of styles, such as Go/No-Go gauges and thread plug gauges. Thread gauges are widely used in the manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive industries to ensure that threads are within tolerance ranges and compliant with standards.

Heli-coil gauges are a specialized type of thread gauge used to measure the size and pitch of helical coils. Helical coils are commonly used to repair damaged threads in screws and bolts. Heli-coil gauges are available in a variety of sizes to match the helical coils being used, and they are usually made of precision-ground steel for accuracy.

Hole gauges, also known as hole micrometers, are used to measure the size of holes. They are available in a wide range of sizes to accommodate various hole dimensions and can measure both the internal and external diameters of holes. These gauges are commonly used in manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive industries.

Radius gauges, also known as radius micrometers, measure the radius of curved surfaces. Available in various sizes, they can be used to measure both concave and convex radii, and are frequently employed in the manufacturing, aerospace, and automotive sectors.
