Doc No: OMMS0001621 + Technologies Rev: A Page 2 of 15 1.0 PURPOSE OF THE WECO UNION GAUGE KIT Weeo Union Components are subjected to harsh environments as well as makeup and breakout routines that can cause wear at unpredictable rates. Although Weco Union Components were designed with some wear allowance, regular inspection of wear must be practiced to insure that component wear limits are not exceeded. Once the allowable wear on any component in the union assembly is exceeded, the part is not suitable for its maximum working pressure and must be discarded from service. The Weco Union Gauge Kit allows for inspection of critical component features to insure integrity at maximum working pressure. There are six union gauges in each kit contained within a portable case made of impact resistant materials. Proper use of these kits will reliably detect whether parts are worn past their allowable wear limits. The kit can also contain a Go ~ No Go Gauge to evaluate the wear on swivel joint ball races, 2.0 WECO UNION GAUGE KIT CONTENTS AND DESIGNATION Each kit includes six gauges designated as gauges 1 - 6 in Table 1 below. The gauge part names may be correlated to the specific gauge numbers in section 5.1 at the end of this manual. Each gauge has one component measurement area to check, except gauge #5, which is used twice: for the male hub thickness on a detachable sub, and for the wear on the retainer segments. ‘The No-Go gauges are designed to not screw into or go into an acceptable part. Detail application is given in the following pages.

Count the number of turns it takes to unscrew gauge #1 out of the wing nut, 3. If gauge #1 goes around more than one full revolution without disengaging from the wing nut, the wing nut must be discarded due to excessively worn threads. 4. If gauge #1 disengages from the wing nut before it completes one full revolution, the nut is not worn past its’ allowable wear limit and may still be ised. dig into the flanks of the thread and make the wing nut appear to be good. Tapping the gauge will help center it to give a true indication of the wing nut's condition. In addition, if the flank of the lead-in thread CAUTION — of the wing nut is rolled over due to wear, the gauge might not start.

The frequency of tests should be proportional to the amount of makeups and breakouts that occur on a regular basis. When in doubt that a given part is past its allowable wear, always use the conservative approach and discard the part in question. 5.1 GAUGE CALIBRATION Each kit contains copies of the calibration record for each of the gauges and it is the responsibility of the end user to insure that the calibration of the gauges is kept current. 5.2 PART NUMBERS Gauge Kit Assembly for 1" Figure 1502 Weco Union P517221 Case, Carrying (with foam inserts) P517220 Gauge #1 No-Go Plug Gauge for Wing Nut Thread P517214 Gauge #2 No-Go Plug Gauge for Wing Nut Thread Diameter P517215, Gauge #3 No-Go Ring Gauge for Female Sub Thread P517216 Gauge #4 No-Go Ring Gauge for Female Sub Thread Diameter P517217 Gauge #5 No-Go Hook Gauge for Segmented Male Sub P517218 Gauge #6 No-Go Hook Gauge for Standard Male Sub P517219 Tapes sescal re aSonond Sa SOTO, GSM a a HALON TST TOE oe Pe TORTS apna Pu Tearoagan oprsuce,daoeee, ade pus ay anwar protean aot by PC ‘and may nt suns rou wong 6" Palabas 1/09 eas “?
