Product details
Description
The G.A.L. Gage Co. V-Wac Gauge GAL-5 is an essential precision pocket tool engineered for welding inspectors and fabricators to verify compliance with structural visual weld acceptance criteria.
Crafted entirely from durable, rust-resistant stainless steel, this compact instrument features deeply etched numbers and increments designed to withstand harsh industrial environments without rubbing off. It enables professionals to quickly perform four critical measurements using a single device: checking undercut depth and pits up to 1/4 inch, evaluating weld crown height in 1/64 inch increments, comparing surface porosity sizes at 1/8 inch and 1/16 inch, and quantifying the amount of porosity per linear inch. The inclusion of an adjustable sliding pointer equipped with a secure locking screw allows users to lock in measurements accurately for later reference and documentation.
Ideal for structural weldments and fillet welds, this authentic USA-imported inspection tool delivers reliable, high-tolerance performance for quality control specialists.
How to use
- Loosen the locking screw on the V-Wac gauge and slide the pointer to measure the undercut depth, crown height, or porosity size against the weld.
- Secure the locking screw to hold the measurement in position for verification and reference against visual weld acceptance criteria.
