Taper Plug Gauge PPGTP01
Features
Taper gauge are used to check the taper and reference diameters of products with tapered bores or holes. This is a manual type of gauging system consisting of a set of gages fitted together, namely, a plain taper plug gage and a plain taper ring gage.
- The depth of a tapered bore that is to be evaluated, can be measured by how deep the reference end face fits into the gage.
- The optimum tolerance depth is usually indicated with a notch, or by a line drawn on the larger end face of the taper plug gauge.
Common types of taper in supply
- Morse taper
- National taper
- Brown & Sharp taper
Description
A taper plug gauge is a measuring tool that is commonly used in the manufacturing industry to ensure the accuracy and precision of cylindrical holes. It consists of a tapered plug that is inserted into the hole being measured and is then compared to a standard size to determine whether the hole is within the required tolerance range.
The taper plug gauge is designed to be easy to use and highly accurate. It is typically made from high-quality materials such as hardened steel, which makes it resistant to wear and tear. The gauge is also often coated with a protective layer to prevent corrosion and ensure a longer lifespan.
To use a taper plug gauge, the user simply selects the appropriate gauge size based on the diameter of the hole being measured. The gauge is then inserted into the hole and gently rotated to ensure that it is properly seated. The user can then determine whether the hole is within the required tolerance range by comparing the gauge to a standard size.
Taper plug gauges are commonly used in the manufacturing of engine parts, bearings, and other precision components. They are an essential tool for ensuring the quality and accuracy of these components, and they play a critical role in ensuring that these parts function as intended.
Overall, taper plug gauges are an essential tool for any manufacturing operation that requires precision measurement. They are easy to use, highly accurate, and durable, making them a reliable tool for ensuring the quality and accuracy of machined parts.
