Tapered Threaded Hole Location Gages

Tapered Threaded Hole Location Gages

Standard Tapered Hole Location Gage

Pin-Style Tapered Hole Location Gage

This style of Threaded Hole Location Gage is made similar to the Solid Threaded Hole Location Gage except that the threaded portion of the Threaded Hole Location Gage is tapered. The taper is designed so that the small end is the lower limit of the thread tolerance and the large end is the upper limit of the thread tolerance. Taper Threaded Hole Location Gages are used where the surface into which the thread is installed is not perpendicular and square to the centerline of the screw thread. As the Tapered Threaded Hole Location Gage is screwed into the internal threaded hole, the thread eventually binds up and locks in place. I can see where this would be quite accurate. There might be some tilt because the taper is binding against a helical surface. I expect the variation to be minimal, if at all existent.
