In the world of industrial welding and metal fabrication, accuracy is not just a preference—it is a requirement. The Best Welds NFG-7 Fillet Weld Gauge stands as an essential tool for quality control inspectors, welding instructors, and professional fabricators who demand precision in their work. Designed to verify that welds meet specified dimensions, this gauge allows for the rapid assessment of fillet weld sizes, ensuring structural integrity and adherence to engineering codes.
The NFG-7 is engineered for resilience in harsh industrial environments. Constructed from high-quality stainless steel, the gauge is both rust-proof and bend-proof. This material choice ensures that the tool maintains its calibration and physical integrity even when exposed to moisture, heat, and the rough handling typical of a busy job site. Unlike plastic or lower-grade metal alternatives, the stainless steel body resists deformation, providing reliable measurements time after time.
Readability is a critical feature for inspection tools, especially in dimly lit workshops or out in the field. The Best Welds NFG-7 features permanently etched and black-filled lettering. This contrast ensures that measurement sizes are legible at a glance, reducing eye strain and minimizing the risk of reading errors. The markings will not rub off or fade with frequent use, a common issue with surface-printed gauges.
This versatile tool is capable of measuring eleven distinct fillet weld sizes: 1/8", 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 5/8", 3/4", 7/8", and 1". It is designed to check both convex and concave weld profiles, making it a comprehensive solution for fillet inspection. The blades are die blanked to eliminate sharp edges, protecting the user from cuts and preventing the gauge from scratching the base metal. Each unit comes with a protective case, ensuring the gauge remains clean and secure when not in use.
