Go / No-Go Gages — Reliable Dimensional Verification for Automotive Inspection

In automotive manufacturing and inspection processes, Go / No-Go gages are essential tools used to quickly and reliably verify whether a part meets dimensional tolerances.
From a user’s perspective — whether you are a quality inspector, production engineer, or fixture designer — Go / No-Go gages provide a fast, intuitive, and repeatable method to control critical dimensions without the complexity of full measurement systems.

Gooding Go / No-Go gages are designed and manufactured specifically for automotive checking fixtures and in-process inspection, delivering high accuracy, durability, and consistent pass/fail results in high-volume production environments.

What Go / No-Go Gages Do for Your Inspection Process

In real factory applications, Go / No-Go gages help users:

• Quickly confirm part compliance to tolerance limits

• Reduce inspection time on production lines

• Minimize operator judgment errors with clear pass/fail results

• Support statistical process control (SPC) and quality stability

Compared to complex measuring equipment, Go / No-Go gages are highly effective for routine checks, inline inspection, and critical feature verification, especially where speed and consistency matter most.

Why Gooding Go / No-Go Gages Are Trusted
