Key Features
- Comprehensive 7-Blade Set: Encompasses complete fillet weld measurements ranging from 1/8" (3.2 mm) to 1" (25.4 mm), allowing for highly adaptable joint assessments.
- Dual Parameter Verification: Equipped with precisely shaped edges to accurately inspect both convex/concave throat thicknesses and fillet leg sizes.
- Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel: Constructed from premium, rust-proof stainless steel to ensure extended resilience in harsh and rugged work environments.
- Compact Pivoting Mechanism: Tightly fastened by a central screw, which facilitates rapid blade swapping, convenient pocket portability, and swift usage.
Usage Instructions
- Make sure the weld zone is fully cleaned and devoid of any slag, spatter, or debris.
- Choose the specific gauge leaf that matches the target weld dimensions outlined in the project blueprints.
- Position the straight, squared edges of the tool securely against the base metals to check the fillet leg's length.
- Turn the leaf over and utilize the curved contour edge to measure the weld's theoretical throat thickness.
- Evaluate how well the gauge fits against the required acceptance standards and document your findings.
Applications
- Shipbuilding & Marine Fabrication: Confirming accurate fillet weld measurements on essential marine components, bulkheads, and ship hulls.
- Pressure Vessel & Boiler Manufacturing: Guaranteeing the strength of structural joints and strict code adherence for vessel seams and boilers.
- Construction & Civil Engineering: Evaluating welds on structural steel frameworks, commercial high-rises, and bridge supports.
- Pipeline Fabrication: Validating that utility, oil, and gas pipe joints meet rigorous international welding regulations.
