Groove Gages | Dial Groove Gages
Dial Groove Gages
Groove gaging, although simple in concept, can be complex in application. Any groove gage used must have retraction in excess of the difference between the bore diameter and the groove diameter. Caliper type gages are often used, but linear action groove gages are preferable, since they are not dependent on a lever ratio and have a much wider range of adjustment.
