What is plug gauges?

Plug gauges are precision measuring tools used to check the accuracy and dimensional tolerances of holes. They typically consist of a cylindrical gauge with two ends: a 'go' end that should enter the hole if it's within the specified lower limit, and a 'no-go' end that should not enter the hole if it's within the specified upper limit. They are used for quick and reliable pass/fail assessments of hole sizes in manufacturing and quality control.
