What is a bridge cam gauge?

What is a bridge cam gauge?

The Bridge Cam Gauge, commonly known as the Cambridge gauge, is an accurate, sturdy gauge for both shop and field applications. It can measure fillet weld leg length and throat thickness, height of weld reinforcement, depth of undercut, misalignment and the angle of preparation.

What is AV WAC gauge?

Description. The V-WAC Single Weld Gauge can be used to measure undercut at the toe of the weld for both butt welds and fillet welds. It has a number of other purposes which make it versatile. It can be used to measure weld cap height and can estimate the size of porosity with the inbuilt porosity comparator.

What are the types of mechanical gauges?

Types of mechanical gauges:

  • Rulers and scales: Rulers and scales are usually single steel plate type tools to measure length and perimeter of objects.
  • Calipers: Calipers are of two types : inside and outside calipers.
  • Vernier Calipers: These precision tools are used to measure smaller distances accurately.

How do you calculate root gap in welding?

The area of the excess weld metal is approximated by the formula (W x h)/2. The area provided by the root gap by g x t. The bevel angles, b, most often used are 10° = (tan 0.176), 15° = (tan 0.268), 22.5° = (tan 0.414) 32.5° = (tan 0.637) and 45° = (tan 1.00).

What is Pit Gauge?

A pit gauge is an industrial tool widely used to measure the wall thickness of structures like plates or pipes. With this tool, plumbers, pipeliners, warehouse personnel, fabricators and even buyers are able to conduct proper measurements to determine the degree of corrosion.

What is high low in welding?

High-Low: Not a defect, high low is a geometry condition caused by ovality or poor mechanical fit. Care must be taken by the operator to ensure the indications originating from this are not called for repair.

What does Hi Lo mean in welding?

HiLo, also called misalignment, refers to the mismatch in height between two pipes lined up for welding. In a pipeline project the HiLo tolerance is set before welding begins and then pipes must be aligned so that they do not exceed this.
