製品の特徴

  • 材料: Constructed from durable stainless steel for longevity and resistance to corrosion.
  • Dual Marking: Features both SWG (Standard Wire Gauge) from 0-36 and an inch scale from 0.3125" to 0.007".
  • 明確なマーキング: Numbers and letters are clearly etched and shining for easy readability.
  • 多用途: Suitable for gauging non-ferrous wire and metal (copper, brass), as well as uncoated sheet, plate iron, and steel.
  • ストレージ: Includes a protective pouch for safe storage and transport.

設定

The DGOL Stainless Steel SWG Sheet Metal Wire Cable Gage requires no assembly. Simply remove the gauge from its protective pouch before use. Ensure the gauge is clean and free from any debris that might affect measurement accuracy.

操作手順

To ensure accurate measurements with your DGOL gauge, follow these instructions carefully:

  1. Identify the Correct Measuring Method: 常に スロット on the edge of the gauge to measure wire or metal thickness. Do ない use the round holes for measurement. The round holes are for reference or hanging, not for gauging.
  2. Measure the Metal Part Only (for wire): When measuring insulated wire, ensure you only measure the metal conductor part. Do not include the insulation (e.g., rubber or plastic coating) in your measurement, as this will lead to an inaccurate reading of the wire gauge.
  3. Insert and Find the Snug Fit: Gently slide the wire or metal sheet into the appropriate slot. The correct measurement is indicated by the smallest slot that the material can pass through without force, providing a snug fit.
  4. 測定値を読み取ります。 Once a snug fit is achieved, read the corresponding number next to the slot. This number represents the SWG or inch measurement.

メンテナンス

  • クリーニング: Wipe the gauge with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove any dust, dirt, or residue. For stubborn grime, a slightly damp 布で拭いてから完全に乾燥させてください。
  • ストレージ: Always store the gauge in its provided protective pouch when not in use. This prevents scratches, damage, and keeps the measurement markings clear.
  • 刺激の強い化学物質を避ける: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the stainless steel finish or degrade the etched markings.
  • 取り扱いにはご注意ください: While durable, avoid dropping the gauge or subjecting it to excessive force, which could deform the slots and affect accuracy.

トラブルシューティング

Inaccurate Wire Measurement

If you are experiencing inaccurate readings for wire, consider the following:

  • Are you using the slots? Ensure you are inserting the wire into the V-shaped slots on the perimeter of the gauge, not the small round holes. The holes are not designed for accurate wire gauging.
  • Are you measuring the metal conductor? For insulated wires, only the bare metal conductor should be measured. The insulation will add to the diameter and result in an incorrect gauge reading.
  • Is the fit snug? The correct measurement is where the wire fits snugly into the slot without being forced or having excessive play.
