Description
Gear Tooth Pitch Gage is a precision tool designed for measuring the pitch of gear teeth, ensuring accurate gear tooth spacing and alignment. This gage is crucial for verifying gear specifications in machining, manufacturing, and maintenance tasks.
Features and Specifications
- Material: Constructed from high-quality stainless steel or hardened tool steel for durability and resistance to wear
- Measurement Range: Typically measures gear pitch within a range of 0.5 to 10 mm or 2 to 40 DP (diametral pitch), depending on the model
- Accuracy: High precision with an accuracy of ±0.01 mm or ±0.001 inch
- Design:
- Tooth Pitch Measurement: Includes a series of precision-cut blades or gears for measuring the pitch and spacing of gear teeth
- Pitch Scales: Engraved or etched scales for easy reading of gear pitch measurements
- Interchangeable Blades: Some models feature interchangeable blades to measure different pitch ranges
- Readout Type: Mechanical analog with clear, easy-to-read graduations
- Finish: Satin chrome or matte finish to reduce glare and improve readability
- Additional Features:
- Locking Mechanism: Some models include a locking mechanism to secure measurements in place
- Protective Case: Often comes with a protective case for safe storage and transport
- Application: Ideal for measuring gear tooth pitch in gears, sprockets, and other toothed components to ensure proper fit and alignment in mechanical assemblies
