A universal welding gauge is used to measure various parameters related to welding, such as bead width, depth, and undercut. By using a universal welding gauge, you can ensure that your welds meet the required standards and are of high quality.
Measure Leg Length: For fillet welds, place the gauge’s appropriate edge or cutout against the weld and check that the leg length meets the required specifications.
Check Throat Thickness: Use the gauge to measure the throat thickness by aligning it between the weld’s root and face.
Measure Weld Reinforcement: Place the gauge on the surface to check the weld reinforcement height, ensuring it’s within acceptable limits to prevent excess or insufficient material.
Check Angles: For V-groove or bevel welds, use the angle measurement feature to ensure the proper angle of the weld.
Undercut Depth Measurement: Position the gauge along the weld toe to measure any undercuts and verify that the depth is within allowable limits.
Measure Gaps (Fit-Up): Before welding, use the gauge to measure the gap between parts to ensure proper alignment and fit-up for strong joints.
