The standard, officially titled "Plain Limit Gauges," is a Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) that specifies the requirements for dimensional inspection tools used for holes and shafts. It provides the technical basis for ensuring that parts manufactured for machinery and precision equipment fall within their specified tolerance zones. Scope and Application

This standard applies to plain limit gauges and reference disks for gap gauges intended for workpieces with: : Dimensions not exceeding 500 mm .
: Gauges are typically constructed from durable materials like alloy tool steel (e.g., SKS31) with high hardness (HRC 58–64) to resist wear during repeated inspections. Determining Gauge Size
: Applied to grades IT6 to IT16 as specified in JIS B 0401.
The standard provides specific formulae (found in Table 5 of the document) and attached tables to calculate the exact size of a limit gauge based on the workpiece's nominal size and tolerance grade. When dimensions reach five or more decimal places, they are rounded to four places according to . How to Access the JIS B 7420 PDF
: It covers various gauge forms, including: Plug Gauges : For inspecting internal hole diameters. Ring Gauges : For inspecting external shaft diameters. Snap (Gap) Gauges : For quick inspection of shafts. Determining Gauge Size
