  3. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stainless_steel

    Stainless steel, also known as inox, corrosion-resistant steel (CRES), or rustless steel, is an iron-based alloy containing a minimum level of chromium that is resistant to rusting and corrosion. Stainless steel's resistance to corrosion results from the 10.5% or more chromium content, which forms a passive film that can protect the material ...

  4. Feeler gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feeler_gauge

    Feeler gauge set (25 pieces, 0.03~1.0 mm measurement range) Measuring the valve clearance of a DOHC engine, between camshaft and tappet (here: 0.004 in ≈ 0.10 mm). A feeler gauge is a tool used to measure gap widths. Feeler gauges are mostly used in engineering to measure the clearance between two parts. [1]

  5. Sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sink

    Stainless steel sinks are widely celebrated for their durability, sleek appearance, and resistance to rust and corrosion. However, many homeowners are baffled when they spot rust stains on their stainless steel sink. [3] One disadvantage of stainless steel is that, being made of thin metal, they tend to be noisier than most other sink materials ...

  6. Sheet metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheet_metal

    The larger the gauge number, the thinner the metal. Commonly used steel sheet metal ranges from 30 gauge to about 7 gauge. Gauge differs between ferrous metals and nonferrous metals such as aluminum or copper. Copper thickness, for example, is measured in ounces, representing the weight of copper contained in an area of one square foot.

  7. Rockwell hardness test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rockwell_hardness_test

    A Rockwell hardness tester. The Rockwell hardness test is a hardness test based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1]

  8. Gauge (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(instrument)

    Dial indicator, also known as a dial test indicator, dial gauge, or probe indicator an instrument used to accurately measure small linear distances. Feeler gauge: a simple tool used to measure gap widths. Gauge block, (also known as a gage block, Johansson gauge, slip gauge, or Jo block) a precision ground and lapped length measuring standard.

  9. Gauge block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_block

    Gauge blocks (also known as gage blocks, Johansson gauges, slip gauges, or Jo blocks) are a system for producing precision lengths. The individual gauge block is a metal or ceramic block that has been precision ground and lapped to a specific thickness. Gauge blocks come in sets of blocks with a range of standard lengths.
