Thread gauges

What are thread gauges ? Thread gauges are essential tools used in hydraulic and industrial workshops that allow for precise identification of the type of thread in hydraulic connections. Thanks to them, you can quickly and effectively determine if a given component fits a specific internal or external thread, eliminating the risk of assembly errors and ensuring the proper operation of hydraulic systems. Thread gauge sets. Invaluable help in identifying threads. The offer includes gauge sets consisting of a plug with an external thread and a cap with an internal thread. Gauges enable quick and trouble-free identification of the thread size. We have gauges for metric threads, British imperial and American JIC / UNF and ORFS ( American with flat seal ) Purpose : identification of internal and external threads. Material : galvanized free-cutting steel. 

How does a thread gauge work ?

A thread gauge works on the principle of comparing the physical dimensions of a thread with a reference measuring tool. The user selects the appropriate gauge and gently fits it into the internal or external thread. If the gauge fits perfectly, it means the thread corresponds to the specified standard (e.g., metric or imperial). This is an extremely fast and intuitive way to identify threads without the need for complicated measuring equipment. 

Internal thread gauges

These tools are designed to check threads located inside connectors, bushings, or other hydraulic components. Their design allows for easy insertion into the thread, enabling a quick comparison of thread dimensions and angle with the appropriate standards. It is an ideal solution for mechanics who need to ensure that connections are accurately matched.

External thread gauges

These gauges are used to check threads on the outside of components such as bolts, nipples, or hydraulic hose fittings. Thanks to precise markings and a variety of sizes, these tools allow for quick identification of the thread type and prevent incorrect connections.

Types of thread gauges

Imperial thread gauges

Imperial thread gauge set covers a wide range of sizes from 1/4 inch to 1 inch. This professional tool enables the identification of popular threads used in hydraulic systems. Thanks to precise workmanship, these gauges are durable and ensure measurement accuracy. They are ideal for workshops involved in the repair and maintenance of industrial machinery and vehicles.

Metric thread gauges

Metric thread gauge set is designed for threads from M10 to M30, which are commonly found in European hydraulic systems. With this set, you can precisely determine the dimensions of metric threads and avoid errors during assembly. Solid construction makes the gauges wear-resistant and ready for intensive use.
