Protecting U.S. national security and global interests depends on the reliability of advanced defense systems. Every threaded component must perform to exact specifications, with military standards defining the tolerances required for proper function.

Critical ground combat vehicle components in powertrains, transmissions, turret systems, and missiles all rely on threaded components manufactured to extremely tight tolerances; even the smallest deviation can compromise mission readiness.

By using specialized gaging, defense manufacturers verify that components assemble with required tolerances, guaranteeing fit, function, and performance. This commitment to accuracy ensures that land-based defense platforms, including weapon systems and tactical vehicles, remain reliable under the most demanding conditions.

At Gage Assembly, our gages can be manufactured in compliance with Mil-Spec and DoD standards, with custom options available to match specific application requirements including ISO.

Our products facilitate fast and accurate inspection of threaded components used in many types of defense systems, including:

• Tanks. Our precision gages can be used to inspect components for turret systems, drivetrains, and vision systems.
• Artillery. Our inspection gages support accuracy and repeatability in high-impact firing systems and ammunition.
• Mobile command and support vehicles. Our gages can be used to qualify threaded components for transmissions, power systems, and suspensions.
• Weapon system components. Our gages ensure weapon system components comply with critical tolerances in defense assemblies.
• Enclosures and cases. Our gages can be used to verify that fasteners and components for protective cases and enclosures meet the required specifications.

In both combat and logistics vehicles, military-grade gages streamline inspection processes, reduce downtime, and reinforce confidence in mission performance.

Gage Assembly can provide a wide range of products, ensuring our customers’ diverse gaging needs are met. Some of the types of gages we offer include:

• Thread plug gage assemblies
• Taperlock, reversible, and trilock plug gage assemblies
• Truncated set plug gages for calibration of ring gages
• Ring gages American Gage Design adjustable up to 15 inches
• Acme and Buttress thread gages

Reliable suppliers are vital to successful defense manufacturing. Contractors depend on inspection tools that meet rigorous standards for accuracy and compliance.

At Gage Assembly, we use state-of-the-art CNC machine centers and precision thread grinding equipment to produce gages that deliver accuracy within millionths of an inch. Each product undergoes careful inspection before delivery, with competitive pricing and short lead times to support urgent defense needs.

Our gaging products simplify verification of pitch diameter and size of both internal and external threads. By combining decades of experience with advanced manufacturing capabilities, we provide defense manufacturers with inspection gages that guarantee quality and mission-critical dependability.
