VARGUS Expands V-Gauge Line with New BSPT and American UN Thread Gauges

VARGUS Ltd., a global leader in precision tooling solutions, is pleased to announce the expansion of its high-end V-Gauge line, further strengthening its offering for manufacturers that demand the highest levels of accuracy and quality control.

What’s New in the V-Gauge Line?

  • Step Limit Gauges for BSPT Thread Standards
    VARGUS now offers step limit gauges designed specifically for BSPT (British Standard Pipe Taper) threads, manufactured to BS:21, System B tolerance classes. These gauges provide reliable and consistent measurements, ensuring compliance with widely used piping and pressure systems across multiple industries.
  • Expanded Go/No Go Gauges for American UN Thread Standards
    The V-Gauge range has been broadened to include Go/No Go plugs and rings for the smallest American UN thread standards:
    • No. 0-80
    • No. 1-72

Manufactured according to ANSI / ASME B1.2, 2A/2B tolerance classes, these gauges provide users with greater flexibility for applications where miniature and precision threads are critical.

Uncompromising Quality and Traceability

Every V-Gauge product is supplied with a Certificate of Inspection, which confirms that each gauge meets the required specifications. Each certificate includes a unique serial number and a QR code on the label, ensuring full traceability to national measurement standards.

Inspection is carried out at a controlled temperature of 20 °C ±1 °C, and dimensional accuracy is verified to meet the strict tolerances required by global standards. Manufacturers can therefore rely on VARGUS gauges for consistency, repeatability, and long service life.

Why VARGUS V-Gauges?

  • Precision you can trust – designed and certified to leading global standards.
  • Global compatibility – covering both BSPT and American UN standards.
  • Confidence in compliance – every gauge supplied with a Certificate of Inspection and traceable results.

Supporting Critical Industries

The expansion of the V-Gauge line strengthens VARGUS’s position as a key supplier of precision thread gauging solutions across industries such as:

  • Oil & Gas and Energy
  • Aerospace and Defence
  • Medical Devices
  • General Precision Engineering

For manufacturers in these sectors, where thread accuracy directly impacts safety, performance, and compliance, the latest VARGUS V-Gauge products provide a new level of assurance.
