How many?
Dual Master air gaging takes two masters, one at each end of the tolerance. Single Master takes one, at nominal; for best results, pick a size near the middle of the part tolerance.
Classes and certification
Masters are made to gagemaker's classes XX, X, Y and Z; we supply Class XX unless you specify otherwise. Every master ships with a long-form certificate of calibration showing the actual measured size, traceable to NIST, from a temperature-controlled lab conforming to ISO/IEC 17025 and ANSI/NCSL Z540-1.
Questions
Can I order a master without the gage?
Yes. Masters are priced on their own in the online configurator, and you can add them to a quote with tooling.
Do you make metric masters?
Yes. Add -MM to the part number for metric sizes.
Which material should I choose?
Steel is standard. Chrome resists wear and corrosion; carbide ring masters are quoted on request for the longest life.
