VCOIL Plug Gauge (D/E) - BSF (STI) - Heli Coil Gauge - Right Hand - Medium - 3/8 x 20

VCOIL Plug Gauge (D/E) for BSF (STI) right-hand, medium, 3/8 x 20 is a precision go/no-go thread gauge designed for helicoil insert applications. Manufactured and assessed to ANSI/ASME thread standards, this gauge helps you verify threaded holes quickly and consistently in shop environments.

• End design: Combined go and no-go plug gauge in one instrument for efficient inspection of 3/8 x 20 BSF threads.
• Go end: Must screw into the thread cut into a part by hand (without excessive force) to indicate a compliant thread.
• No-Go end (scrap side): Should not be able to be manually turned more than two complete turns into the cut thread, indicating non-compliance.
• Scrap marking: Scrap side is marked with a red ring for immediate visual identification.
• Standard and compatibility: Aligns with ANSI/ASME thread system for Helicoil gauges, with BSF (STI) threads.
• Size and orientation: Right-handed thread, medium size, 3/8 x 20.
• Temperature reference: Uses a reference temperature of 20°C for parts and gauges to ensure consistent measurements.

The gauge provides quick, pass/fail verification of helicoil hole threads, helping to reduce guesswork and scrap. By following the go/no-go criteria precisely, you can maintain consistent thread quality across production runs and ensure compatibility with standard helicoil inserts.
