Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What does class X tolerance mean?

A. It means that the gauge has an inch tolerance of 0.00004 inches and a Metric tolerance of 0.001 mm.

Q. How do you use a Go pin gauge?

A. If the go gauge fits within the component, it means that the mate component won't have too much material and will likewise fit, assuring correct assembly. The Go gauge is put into a part's hole to examine the size of the hole. The hole is deemed to be over its low limit if the gauge can be inserted into it.

Q. What is the difference between plus and minus pin gauges?

A. A minus pin gauge set consists of pins with a tolerance less than the goal size, allowing the pin to fit inside the target dimension. Whereas a bore at the goal dimension is impossible with a plus pin gauge set which has pins with a defined tolerance above the target dimension.
