TYPES OF GAUGES

Plug / Pin Gages - Plug and pin gages are used for go / no-go assessment of hole and slot dimensions or locations compared to specified tolerances.

Dimensional Gages and Instruments - Dimensional gages and instruments provide quantitative measurements of a product's or component's dimensional and form attributes such as wall thickness, depth, height, length, I.D., O.D., taper or bore.

Indicators and Comparators - Indicators and comparators measure where the linear movement of a precision spindle or probe is amplified

Bore and ID Gages - Bore and ID gages are designed for internal diameter dimensional measurement or assessment

Thread Gages - Thread gages are dimensional instruments for measuring thread size, pitch or other parameters.

Air Gages - Air gages use pneumatic pressure and flow to measure or sort dimensional attributes.

Digital Pressure Gauges - Digital pressure gauges use electronic components to convert applied pressure into usable signals. The gauge readout has a digital numerical display.

Pressure Gauges - Gauges or meters for pressure measurement. Pressure gauges include digital gauges and analog dial face gauges.

Micrometers - Micrometers are instruments for precision dimensional gaging consisting of a ground spindle and anvil mounted in a C-shaped steel frame. Noncontact laser micrometers are also available.

Calipers - Calipers typically use a precise slide movement for inside, outside, depth or step measurements. Some caliper types are used for comparing or transferring dimensions.

Gage Blocks - Gage blocks are manufactured to precise gagemaker tolerance grades for calibrating, checking, and setting fixed and comparative gages.

Ring Gages - Ring gages are used for go / no-go assessment compared to the specified dimensional tolerances or attributes of pins, shafts, or threaded studs.

Depth Gages - Depth gages are used to measure of the depth of holes, cavities or other component features.

Height Gages - Height gages are used for measuring the height of components or product features.

Snap Gages - Snap gages are used in production settings where specific diametrical or thickness measurements must be repeated frequently with precision and accuracy.

Masters and Setting Gages - Masters and setting gages provide dimensional standards for calibrating other gages.
