What Is the Disc Type Wire Gauge Used For?
Wire and thin sheet are commonly specified by gauge number rather than in millimetres, so workshops, stores and laboratories need a quick way of finding the gauge of a sample. The disc has a series of slots around its edge, each marked with its gauge number; the wire or the edge of the plate is tried in the slots until it fits one closely without forcing, and that slot gives the size. This gauge covers sizes 1 to 36, and its hardened and tempered steel resists wear of the slot edges with repeated use.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the number of wire gauges required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What can the wire gauge measure?
It measures the thickness of metal plate and the diameter of wire, giving the size as a gauge number from 1 to 36.
How is the gauge used?
The wire or plate edge is tried in the slots around the disc until it fits one snugly; the number marked beside that slot is the gauge size.
Why is it made of hardened and tempered steel?
Hardened and tempered steel resists wear of the slot edges, so the slots keep their size during repeated measurement.
