Telescoping Gage Set

Telescoping gage sets are a type of measuring tool commonly used by craftsmen in various industries. They are part of the supply class "Measuring Tools, Craftsmen's" within the supply group "Measuring Tools."

Telescoping gage sets consist of a series of telescoping gages, also known as telescopic gauges or snap gauges. These tools are used to measure the internal diameter of holes or the external diameter of cylindrical objects. They are particularly useful for measuring hard-to-reach areas or for checking the size of holes that are not easily accessible.

The telescoping gage set typically includes several gages of different sizes, allowing craftsmen to measure a wide range of hole diameters. Each gage consists of two telescoping arms, one with a measuring head and the other with a handle. The measuring head is inserted into the hole or placed around the cylindrical object, and then the handle is tightened to lock the gage in place. The gage can then be removed and the measurement can be read using a separate measuring tool, such as a micrometer or caliper.

Telescoping gage sets are commonly used in industries such as machining, metalworking, automotive, and aerospace. They are essential tools for ensuring accurate measurements and maintaining quality standards in various manufacturing processes.
