4 -1 | step-type go/no-go gauge |

step-type go/no-go gauge Explanation: My book shows two types of plug gauges: one (plain plug gauge) with a go plug at one end and a no-go plug at the other; the second (step type) has both plugs at the same end of the handle, the go plug being outermost, i.e. you can insert the go plug into a right-sized hole, but the no-go plug will not follow. I say "no go", but my book actually says "go/not-go". |

The asker has declined this answer Comment: Thanks, Alex, but like bistefano says, there is another more common expression for that... In fact, I've found a '2-point plug gauge' that seem to fit the bill. |
two points gauge / double contact gauge Explanation: Look @ the ref. link, full explanation and figures. Search for heading "TAMPONS DE MESURE A TOUCHES (Tampons pilotent)". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs 19 mins (2003-12-11 21:42:44 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Also have a look at this : => http://jmburg.free.fr/metrol/2_2_methodes.pdf ... and this : http://www.etamic.com/pdf/application_FTA01_0055.pdf They can be interesting and (hopefully) useful.
