ring gauge

Cylindrical diameter measurer

A ring gauge is a precision measuring tool consisting of a metal ring with a precisely machined inner diameter, used to check whether cylindrical objects like shafts or pins meet specified tolerances.

The part being measured either fits through the ring (go gauge) or doesn't (no-go gauge), providing a quick pass/fail test in manufacturing and quality control.
