ASME B18.2.9-2007 pdf free download.Straightness Gage and Gaging for Bolts and Screws.
2 COMPARISON WITH ISO 4759-1:2000
This Standard uses an a(IjLLS(abIC gage, instead of plain sleeve gages like the esample shown in 1St) 4759-1 Annex C, Figure C.24. The adjustable gage avoids the necessity of a different gage for each diameter-length combination, and for each difFerence in the specified tolerances on diameter and/or straightness of the fastener.

6 GAGE
The gage consists of a stationary rail, an adjustable rail, micrometers that indicate the distance between the rails at each end, and a means to secure the adjustable rail in place. A typical gage is illustrated in Fig. I.
7 PROCEDURE
(a) The ecJuded length. illustrated in Fig. 2, is the length, if any, that is lobe excluded mm the straightness gage, as specified by the product standard.
(b) The gaged length, illustrated in Fig. 2, iscalcubted as the bolt or screw length minus the excluded length.
(c) The straightness tolerance at MMC Inc the product to be inspected is calcuLated for the gaged length by the formula specified in the product standard.
(d) The resultant condition is calculated as the larger of the maximum major diameter of the thread or the maximum body diameter of the bolt or screw, plus the straightness tolerance at MMC.
(e) Th adjustable rail of the gage is adjusted to provide a parallel space between the rails equal to the resultant condition by obtaining common readings on both micrometer heads, and is secured in place.
(f) The gaged length of the product to be inspected is inserted between the rails, then rotated by hand through a full 360 deg. Any interference occurring between the product and the gage sufficient to prevent rotation indicates that the specified straightness is not.
