Description

VCOIL Plug Gauge (D/E) is a precision right‑hand Helicoil gauge designed for BSW (STI) threads, helping machinists quickly verify threaded inserts and helicoil compatibility against ANSI standards.

  • Go/No-Go Thread Gauge: Combines both go and no‑go checks in a single tool to confirm whether a thread meets the required standard.
  • ANSI/ASME Compliance: Manufactured and tested in accordance with ANSI standards for the relevant thread system.
  • Red Scrap Ring: Scrap side is clearly marked with a red ring to prevent misreading during inspection.
  • Go End Verification: The go end should thread into the part by hand with normal force; difficulty indicates non‑conformance.
  • No-Go End Verification: The scrap end should not thread more than two turns into the cut thread.
  • Right-Hand Orientation: Right‑hand thread gauge suitable for standard helicoil insert applications.
  • Size/Format: D/E size range, BSW (STI) thread form, Medium grade, 1 x 8 pitch.
  • Grip and Handling: Knurled body provides secure handling and precise alignment during measurement.
  • Reference Temperature: Specified reference temperature of 20°C for consistent results across gauges and parts.

With the VCOIL Plug Gauge, you gain fast, reliable thread verification that supports quality control and maintenance workflows. The integrated go/no-go design reduces guesswork and rework, while the clearly marked scrap side and manual go‑test requirement help ensure consistent pass/fail decisions. The 20°C reference temperature ensures measurements stay stable across shifts and environments, making it suitable for shop floors, inspection labs, and service centers working with helicoil inserts and BSW (STI) threads.
