## Overview

The V-Wac Gauge GAL-5 is a precision stainless steel tool engineered to measure weld undercuts, porosity, pits, and crown height with a tolerance of 1/64 inch. Designed for structural weld inspections, it consolidates four critical measurements into one compact, easy-to-read gauge with a locking screw for repeatable accuracy, making it an essential instrument for professionals ensuring compliance with NRC Visual Weld Acceptance Criteria.

## Description

WG-5 V-WAC Gage quickly determine if fillet welds meet NRC Visual Weld Acceptance Criteria for structural weldments. It easily and quickly checks the four essential measurements required for compliance with NRC Visual Weld Acceptance Criteria. It checks undercut depth, porosity comparison, amount of porosity per linear inch and crown height. The undercut depth or crown height scale can be read to 1/32 inch. Porosity comparision of 1/8" and 1/16 inch. Linear gage in 1/16 inch increments. The gage is easy to set and a locking screw holds it in position for later reference. All four required measurements are made with a single gage.

Review: Best gauges - Being a structural steel inspector i prefer the best.
Review: Great tool for the price - I use it in the inspection industry which means visibility isn't always the greatest but I can read this easily. This tool is light and compact. That was my main concern. Some inspection tools have writing that is very difficult to read even with glasses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best gauges

Being a structural steel inspector i prefer the best.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great tool for the price

I use it in the inspection industry which means visibility isn't always the greatest but I can read this easily. This tool is light and compact. That was my main concern. Some inspection tools have writing that is very difficult to read even with glasses.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A step up from cheaper V-Wac gauge.
*by C***3 on October 17, 2020*

I got a V-Wac for work, but it read in metric and was not of great quality, so I never used it. I got this gauge and it's my go-to for measuring undercut. The pin is adjustable so you can have the point tight or loose and measures to the 64th and has holes for porosity measurement. Get this if you are an inspector and want a reliable tool for years.
