Publication number: 20140230263Abstract: A gauge for measuring a weld between two abutted pipe sections has a unitary body including a reference edge for abut an outer surface of the pipe sections, a first gauge portion at a prescribed first distance from the reference edge corresponding to a minimum cap height of the weld, and a second gauge portion at a prescribed second distance from the reference edge corresponding to a maximum cap height of the weld. One or both ends of the body includes an end surface and a bevel surface at an obtuse angle to the end surface so as to be arranged to abut a bevel cut end of a pipe section when the end surface abuts the outer side of the pipe section to gauge an inclination of the bevel cut end. A measurement scale with an advance cut line extends along the body opposite from the reference edge.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2014Publication date: August 21, 2014Inventor: Johnathan Kenneth Livitski
