    This document provides guidelines for using Go Gauges to check threads, including pre-use checks of ensuring gauges are clean and undamaged, using both Go and No-Go gauges together to fully check threads, and screwing the Go Gauge completely into the thread to check for any flank movement which could indicate a defective thread.

    General Guidelines for Go Gauges Learning Aid

    Purpose
    This document captures the main learning points on the subject of using a Go Gauge to
    check threads.

    Pre-use checks

    § All test and measuring instruments should be wiped free from dirt and grit before
    using.
    § Visual inspection of measuring equipment should be performed before using. If there
    is any signs of damage or misuse the equipment should be returned to the Calibration
    Lab for inspection.
    § All test and measuring equipment is subject to periodic calibration or inspection. All
    calibrated test equipment must bear evidence of a current calibration sticker.
    Note:
    § To properly check threads, both Go and No-Go gauges must be mated to the
    threads. Running one gauge will not completely check the thread possibly resulting in
    a failure.

    Procedure

    1. You should only use your hands to mate the Go gauge to


    the thread

    2. Screw the Go gauge all the way into the thread.

    3. Unwinding the Go gauge there should be no flank (lateral side to side) movement.

    Important

    If the Go Gauge should not fully pass through or excessive force is required, the thread is
    considered defective.
