Silverline Drill Gauge 1 - 13mm (598570)

Product Information

Each gear tooth gauge has a pressure angle (either 14.5° or 20° although other angles are available), which relates to the angle between the tooth face and the tangent line to the gear wheel. They are widely used by engineers due to their high accuracy and tough hardened stainless steel construction. Gear tooth gauges range from pitches as small as 0.35mm up to 12mm and beyond.

Taper Gauge – The taper gauge is used to measure the taper of a drill bit. It consists of several sets of markings indicating the taper and size of the bit.

Most people don’t know how to make a drill gauge, but it’s actually quite simple. All you need is a piece of cardboard, a pencil, and a ruler. First, cut a strip of cardboard that is 2 inches wide and 8 inches long. Keep hands away from drill bit – always keep hands away from the drill bit while the drill is in use.

If you’re an average weekend-warrior, you’ve probably stared at a screw or bolt for a few moments and wondered what size drill bit you would need.Taper gauges are available in either analogue or digital formats, with specific models designed for slots and bores. Different width taper gauges are also available depending on the size and depth of the hole to be measured. Digital taper gauges will usually offer the highest accuracy due to it being able to display measurements to multiple levels of decimal places, as well as it eliminating chances for human error. If you need to know precise measurements for your projects, then investing in a good quality thread pitch gauge is definitely worth your while! To use a thread pitch gauge, simply place it on the thread and match up the teeth on the gauge with the threads on the screw. Once you have found the correct tooth, you can then read off the pitch measurement from the scale on the side of the gauge. Welding gauges come in a plethora of shapes and sizes which can, at first, seem daunting. The key criteria to determine which gauge is suitable is the size of the weld, the dimension which need measuring and the accuracy to which the measurements need to be to. Welding gauges are available with either analogue or digital output and are also supplied as sets containing various types of welding gauge including fillet welding gauges, pipe welding gauges and standard welding gauges as well as micrometers, inspection mirrors, magnifiers and rules. Thread pitch gauges are relatively inexpensive tools, and they are essential for anyone who works with screws on a regular basis.

Set the drill bit to the correct depth – always set the drill bit to the correct depth before drilling. Finally, getting the right size drill bit set in your greater tool “chest” will arm you for the various types of projects you’re doing. These specialist drill bits are used for drilling centre holes at two different angles, 60 degrees and 90 degrees. They are commonly used to drill lathe centres and spotting drills, i.e.marking holes to guide twist drilling.

Conclusion

Accuracy Rating: Drill gauges typically have an accuracy rating of ±0.001 inch (0.025 mm) or better.
