scope:

This international standard specifies the most important metrological and design characteristics of plaint limit gauges of linear size This International Standard defines the different types of plain limit gauges used to prove conformance with linear dimensional specification associated to linear size. This international standard also defines the design characteristics and the metrological characteristics for these limit gauges as well as the new or worn state MPEs for these characteristics. This international standard also describes the use of limit gauges and it covers linear sizes up to 500 mm.
