Diangle Taper Angle Gages

The DIANGLE gage is used to measure the included angle of either tapered holes or tapered shafts. The construction of the DIANGLE consists of an inner and an outer plunger, which contact the taper.

The difference between the radii of the inner and outer plungers is one dimension of a 90 degree triangle. The axial movement of the plungers is tracked by a dial indicator which gives the second dimension of the 90 degree triangle. Knowing these two dimensions enables the DIANGLE to read the total included angle directly in degrees.

DIANGLE gages can be used to measure tapers with a major diameter as small as .100 or as large as 6 inches. DIANGLES are custom manufactured for your specific application. Standard components are modified and calibrated to suit each requirement. Ranges of the total indicator reading can be as small as several minutes (for finer sensitivity and accuracy) or as large as 120 degrees. The accuracy of the DIANGLE is dependent upon the range desired. For an instrument with a range of several minutes, guaranteed accuracy to +/-10 seconds is attainable. A tapered master gage (ground and certified) is recommended for calibration of the DIANGLE.
