Measurement of the height of :

-root height layer

-tact weld imperfection

Root height layer - the amount of penetration of the base metal when welding the root layer of a multi-pass seam. 
Tact weld imperfection  - the amount of penetration of the base metal when welding the root layer of a multi-pass seam. The height of the root layer of the seam and the requirements for its quality should be regulated according to the production and technological documentations



  • Position the welding gauge on the surface of the base metal at a minimum distance from the measuring point.
  • For greater of  the welding gauge when taking measurements, use the pivots.

˟ красным цветом выделен параметр, подлежащий измерению


  • Adjust the linear member 3 so that the taper gauge 5 is above the point of measurement.
  • From the vertical scale H, take the readings of parameter h
  • To obtain the desired parameter s, measure the difference between the nominal thickness and the measured parameter.

Using  a calculator, you can determine the desired value of the from the measured parameters
