Gaging Connectors
Gaging the 2.4 mm Sliding Loads
Gage the sliding load before each use. If the sliding load pin depth is out of the observed
pin depth limits listed in
, refer to
“Adjusting the Sliding Load Pin
NOTE
Always hold a connector gage by the gage barrel, below the dial indicator.
This gives the best stability, and improves measurement accuracy. (Cradling
the gage in your hand or holding it by the dial applies stress to the gage
plunger mechanism through the dial indicator housing.)
1. Select the proper gage for your connector. Refer to
for gage part
numbers.
2. Inspect and clean the gage, gage master, and device to be gaged. Refer to
“Cleaning Connectors” on page 3-5
earlier in this chapter.
3. Zero the connector gage (refer to
a. While holding the gage by the barrel, and without turning the gage or the device,
connect the gage to the gage master by interconnecting the male and female
connectors. Connect the nut finger-tight. Do not overtighten.
b. Using an open-end wrench to keep the device body from rotating, use the torque
wrench included in the kit to tighten the connecting nut to the specified torque. Refer
to
“Final Connection Using a Torque Wrench” on page 3-15
for additional
information.
c. As you watch the gage pointer, gently tap the barrel of the gage to settle the reading.
The gage pointer should line up exactly with the zero mark on the gage. If not, adjust
the zero set knob until the gage pointer lines up exactly with the zero mark.
d. Remove the gage master.
4. Gage the sliding load connector (refer to
a. Unlock the center conductor pullback mechanism by raising the pullback handle to
the unlocked position.
b. Carefully move the pullback mechanism toward the connector end of the sliding load.
The center conductor will extend beyond the end of the connector. Continue to hold
the pullback mechanism in this position.
c. Pull the sliding ring back approximately 0.5 in and install a centering bead in the
connector end of the sliding load.
CAUTION
The sliding load center conductor can be damaged if the sliding load is not in
alignment with the mating connector while making the connection.
d. Keep the center conductor extended by holding the center conductor pullback
mechanism toward the connector end of the sliding load. Align the sliding load with
the mating connector on the gage and mate the sliding load center conductor with
the gage center conductor.
