Deep Throat Thickness Gauge

Product Information

When we design fillet welds, the shear stress calculation is based on the throat size (a) of the fillet weld. we can convert leg size (z) to throat size (a) using the below simple equation: To measure weld reinforcement, lower the legs of the gauge to the surface of the plate. Then, using the tip, place it at the highest point on the weld. The Weld reinforcement dimension is again read from this scale. This weld reinforcement measures 1/8 of one inch or approx 3.1 mm To measure fillet weld leg length, rest the legs of the gauge on the surface of the plate, then rotate the tip, to the toe of the weld. The actual leg length is read from this scale. This measurement should read one half of one inch or approx 12.7 mm. Fillet weld is specified by a size known as either Throat size (given as a) or leg length (given as z). You can use fillet weld size formula to calculate the Fillet Weld size. Fillet welds and predominately used weld joint types in construction, structural and general fabrication although they are not used in critical weld joint locations.

There are other kind of gages available in the market too, that do not involve any slider in the instrument, and only involve putting the instrument on the fillet, and looking up a direct reading for measuring the throat size of the fillet weld. SKU: F30.0100 Category: Welding Inspection Description Product Information The Bridge Cam Gauge by GAL GAGE Company is one of our most versatile gauges available. With it, you can perform several different types of measurements of welds in both inches or millimetres. This is a high quality product and performs as advertised, but not as easy to use or useful I first thought. It requires a lot of additional firearm knowledge to be a productive tool. Similar to the measure of convexity, first find out the expected fillet size of the weld, by referring drawing or any other technical document. Also it's an odd shape, I thought it would fold or disassemble to fit in a smaller slot in my tool box.

The figure shown above is a theoretical concept of a filler weld– represented by an equilateral triangle. You will notice that an actual fillet weld is difficult to achieve with this profile unless external grinding or machining is applied on the fillet weld surface. The most important fillet weld gauge to have in your arsenal is the common gauge. However, there are other gauges you might want to consider. In fact I believe all new FAC holders should get out and shoot one at some point, just because. I have a modest collection of 303 Sporting and military rifles, including Lee Speed and postwar No1Mk3 commercial examples here in the armoury along with later ones such as the 1920 Lithgow below. However, it is important to note that excessive convexity can actually have a negative impact on the overall strength of the weld, as it can create weld bumps that protrude outward from the surface. Adjustable fillet weld gauges are great because they are convenient and do not require you to carry around as many tools. How to Use a Fillet Weld Gauge

Most specifications require convexity and concavity to be minimal, or to a specified minimum value. FAQs About Fillet Weld Gauges What Is A Fillet Weld Gauge? Welders often strive to produce a convex fillet weld, as this type of weld face is typically seen as being more aesthetically pleasing than a concave weld face.
