Gage Extension Considerations
An adaptor extends or shortens the pivot point of the torque wrench when taking
measurements
To compensate for using an adapter you must multiply the adapted length of the wrench by a
calculated scaling factor (see Appendix D for additional information)
This can be done either in the gage source or in the use assigned to the gage alias
Gage source example:
o 1.2*G2C (multiplying the gage reading G2C by a scaling factor of 1.2)
This option requires users to apply the scaling factor to every reading in a setup
that requires use of an adapter
Because this is a modified source, the tool does not require additional mastering
Gage Use Example:
o The scaling factor can be applied to the gage use (see step 4 above)
o The use can be tied to the alias for all setups with this use
o In a 600, mastering is done by tool, not by use
