How taper gauge looks ?
How u gonna use it ?
A taper gauge effectively stretches a scale so that
fine increments can be read more clearly. Not just for checking slot widths or hole diameters, it is also easier to use than a rule for setting calipers to a specific dimension.
Some information Regarding Taper
Gauge Mostly Used In measurement Gap width Material to be used stainless steel, hardened steel. Measurement of tubing, bore, slot width, hole sizes and flange face to face dimension, etc. Quick to use more accuracy may obtain.
