Threaded Ring Gauges with Calibration Certificate
A certificate of calibration traceable to NIST states that these gauges have passed a test for accuracy. They’re for checking a part’s external threads to ensure they fall within tolerance.
A part is within tolerance if it’s easy to thread a go gauge onto the part but difficult to thread a no-go gauge more than two turns.
Go gauges check the maximum external thread size.
No-go gauges check the minimum external thread size.
Threads have different classes of fit. Thread fit designates the tightness or looseness of the mating threads. For example, inch threads with a 3A fit have tighter tolerances than threads with a 2A fit.
