  2. Bore gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_gauge

    An inside micrometer or vernier bore gauge measures a bore directly. The gauge has three symmetrical anvils that protrude from the gauge body that are connected to the dial or micrometer mechanism. As the knob is rotated it moves the anvils in or out with respect to the measurements.

  3. Micrometer (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micrometer_(device)

    Bore micrometer, typically a three-anvil head on a micrometer base used to accurately measure inside diameters. Tube micrometers have a cylindrical anvil positioned perpendicularly to a spindle and is used to measure the thickness of tubes. Micrometer stops are micrometer heads that are mounted on the table of a manual milling machine, bedways ...

  4. Bore (engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bore_(engine)

    The bore pitch is always larger than the inside diameter of the cylinder (the bore and piston diameter) since it includes the thickness of both cylinder walls and any water passage separating them. This is one of the first dimensions required when developing a new engine, since it limits maximum cylinder size (and therefore, indirectly, maximum ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Micrometer.svg

    English: Illustration of a micrometer caliper. The micrometer is showing a measurement of 7.145 mm ± 0.005 mm. Legend: Anvil: part that the spindle moves toward, and that the sample rests against; Spindle: moved by the thimble towards the anvil; Ratchet stop: limits applied pressure by slipping at a calibrated torque

  6. Gauge (instrument) - Wikipedia

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

    Bore gauge: a device used for measuring holes. Hole gauge [3] used to gage internal dimensions of bores that are either too small in diameter for an inside micrometer, and have greater economy than a bore gage or other precision internal gage. Caliper: a device used to measure the distance between two opposing sides of an object.

  7. Boring (manufacturing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_(manufacturing)

    A part's-eye view of a boring bar. Hole types: Blind hole (left), through hole (middle), interrupted hole (right). In machining, boring is the process of enlarging a hole that has already been drilled (or cast) by means of a single-point cutting tool (or of a boring head containing several such tools), such as in boring a gun barrel or an engine cylinder.

  8. Ring gauge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_gauge

    A ring gauge, or ring gage, is a cylindrical ring of a thermally stable material, often steel, whose inside diameter is finished to gauge tolerance and is used for checking the external diameter of a cylindrical object. [1] Ring gauges are used for comparative gauging as well as for checking, calibrating, or setting of gauges or other standards ...

  9. Mean piston speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_piston_speed

    For example, a piston in an automobile engine which has a stroke of 90 mm will have a mean speed at 3000 rpm of 2 * (90 / 1000) * 3000 / 60 = 9 m/s. The 5.2-liter V10 that debuted in the 2009 Audi R8 has the highest mean piston speed for any production car (26.9 m/s) thanks to its 92.8 mm stroke and 8700-rpm redline. [1]
