They are manufactured to an x tolerance and american gage design standards agd. Thread gages are used to ensure the assembly of mating parts. Thread ring gages are adjustable and used to measure threads on an outside diameter od to ensure the threads are within its designed tolerance limits.

M series metric thread gages are manufactured per asme b1 16m. Gages may be purchased individually or as assemblies. Unified inch standard gages are manufactured per asme b1 2. The go gage should thread onto the part and the nogo gage should not.

Section 1 classes of threads are differentiated by the amount of tolerance and allowance specified. Threaded ring gauges for npt pipe threads with calibration certificate to ensure accuracy of npt pipe thread measurements these gauges include a certificate of calibration traceable to nist that states they ve passed a test for accuracy. Threads and the maximum pitch diameters tolerance limit for o d. This is the minimum pitch diameter tolerance limit for i d.

Indicating gaging is typically mastered at maximum material condition. A thread ring gauge is designed to check the correctness of the thread to include thread depth and pitch diameter to the given pitch tpi. Available in go or nogo class 2a or 3a for inch and to x tolerance class 6g for metric. Standard pitch diameter chart 17 precision gages for quality assurance ring thread gages and setting plugs nominal size x tol.

Ref m 1 6 x. Using the principles of go nogo gaging for external threaded parts a go thread ring gage checks the maximum minor diameter and maximum pitch diameter and a nogo thread ring gage checks that the minimum pitch diameter is not exceeded. Working thread plug thread ring and thread setting plug gages are manufactured to inspect the pitch diameter and the functional thread.
