SETTING RING 10MM 0.001MM ACC.

Setting rings are most commonly used for setting bore gauges, this is the fastest

most reliable method because the part to be gauged and the setting ring have the

same geometric shape. Ring gauges are metrology tools that are used for gauging

the outer diameters of pins, shafts, splines, fasteners, dowels, studs, and other

machined cylindrical parts.

The ring gauge is a ring-shaped measuring instrument used to measure the outside

diameter of cylindrical objects such as pins, shafts, splines, fasteners, dowels,

studs, and other parts of the machine. Ring gauges are usually made of stable materials

such as chrome plated tool steel and carbide which provide greater service life.

This tool is very precise (exceedingly tight tolerance) which is used as an outer

diameter gauge.

• For inside micrometer and bore gage setting
• Deviation (difference between the order size and the size marked on supplied

  setting ring) ±3.0µm

• Accuracy: ±1.0µm

• Range: Ø2-300mm

The main function of the ring gauge is to determine by ‘go’ or ‘no-go’ whether

the measured part is in accordance with the specified dimensional tolerance. The

use of ring gauges allows inspections of machine parts to be made very quickly without

the need to use micrometers, calipers, thickness gauges, or other measuring instruments

which can take longer to conclude its quality.

Ring gauges are also effective for checking roundness at higher levels. Measurements

with this tool are used as a standard to set the bore gauge, which can then be used

to determine whether there are deviations from the nominal size.
