What are gauges?
Show answer
A gauge checks a dimension quickly without taking a reading. A go/no-go gauge has two ends: the "go" end should fit the part and the "no-go" end should not. If the no-go end fits, the part is outside tolerance and rejected. Gauges speed up inspection in batch and mass production.
