WELDING GAUGE 4-10,12MM/ 4-10,12,14,16,18MM DOUBLE PRINTING 0.5MM ACC
SERIES 972
A Welding Fillet Gauge is a specialized tool used to measure the size and quality of fillet welds, which are triangular welds used to join two surfaces at a right angle. Fillet welds are common in structural and industrial applications such as construction, shipbuilding, and automotive manufacturing. The fillet gauge helps ensure that the weld meets specified design dimensions and standards, such as throat thickness and leg length, which are critical for the strength and integrity of the weld.

A Welding Fillet Gauge is an essential tool for inspecting the size and quality of fillet welds. It provides quick and accurate measurements of leg length, throat thickness, and sometimes weld angle, helping to ensure that the weld meets design specifications and industry standards. The gauge's durable construction, ease of use, and versatility make it an invaluable tool for welders, inspectors, and quality control personnel in industries such as construction, shipbuilding, and automotive.
Advantages of a Welding Fillet Gauge:
- Accurate Measurement: Provides quick and accurate measurements of critical weld dimensions, such as leg length and throat thickness.
- Easy to Use: Simple design allows for fast measurements without the need for complex calibration or setup.
- Portable and Durable: Its compact size and durable stainless steel construction make it ideal for use in tough industrial environments.
- Ensures Compliance: Helps ensure that welds meet required industry standards, reducing the risk of structural failures.
Technical Specifications
How to Use a Welding Fillet Gauge:
-
Leg Length Measurement:
- Place the appropriate edge of the fillet gauge against the weld. The gauge should fit snugly along the leg of the weld. If the gauge does not fit correctly, the weld size may be undersized or oversized.
-
Throat Thickness Measurement:
- Use the appropriate cutout or edge of the gauge to measure the weld's throat. Ensure the gauge touches both the weld face and the root, indicating the weld's effective throat thickness.
-
Repeat Across the Weld:
- Take measurements at different points along the weld seam to ensure consistent weld size and quality.
