Just trying to get clear on the difference between plug gages and pin gages.
Pin gages come in the plus or minus variety. I get that. We have a minus set at work which is -.0002. So a nominal .5000 pin gage is really .4998. Right? We generally don't work in tenths on my job, 'cept when reaming and what not.
Plug gages I take it come in a go or no-go variety. Never used them. Are they just like pin gages, only with a niffty red and green holder? But what are the sizes of a go and a no-go plug gage? Are they also plus or mius or something? Are they the same length as pin gages?
