Welding Gauges are precision inspection tools used to measure, verify, and evaluate welds for quality and compliance. They are essential for welders, inspectors, and engineers to ensure that welded joints meet specified standards in fabrication, construction, and manufacturing industries.
Key Characteristics:
-
Types of Gauges: Includes fillet weld gauges, butt weld gauges, hi-lo gauges, and multi-purpose weld inspection tools.
-
Accuracy: Provides reliable measurement of weld size, throat thickness, undercut, misalignment, and other critical welding dimensions.
-
Durability: Manufactured from stainless steel or hardened materials to withstand heavy-duty workshop and site use.
-
Ease of Use: Compact and easy to carry, with clear graduations for fast and accurate inspection.
-
Compliance: Designed to support adherence to welding codes and standards in professional applications.
Common Uses:
-
Weld Inspection: Checking fillet weld sizes, throat thickness, and leg lengths for accuracy.
-
Fabrication: Ensuring correct alignment and dimensions in structural steelwork, piping, and pressure vessels.
-
Quality Control: Verifying welds against specifications in manufacturing, automotive, and construction industries.
