Power hacksaw Features The power saw works like a handsaw, and has an arrangement for cutting during the movement in one direction and releasing pressure on the non-cutting stroke. The rotary motion of the motor is converted into linear motion by a crank mechanism. The required cutting pressure is obtained hydraulically or by an adjustable weight.

. parts of a telescopic gauge . constructional features of telescopic gauges . parts of a small hole gauge Telescopic gauges are popular for fine work as they are very rigid and have a better 'feel'. Uses Used for measuring the sizes of holes, slots and recesses. Construction Telescopic gauges are 'T' shaped. They consist of a pair of telescopic legs or plungers connected to a handle. The plungers are spring loaded to force them apart. After inserting the gauge in a hole or slot, it can be locked in position by turning the knurled handle. It may then be withdraw from the hole and measured with a micrometer. Telescopic gauges are available in a set of 5 nos, to measure holes from 12.7mm to 152.4mm. No.1 12.7mm to 19mm No.2 19.0mm to 31.7mm No.3 31.7mm to 53.9mm No.4 53.9mm to 88.9mm No.5 88.9mm to 152.4mm Small hole gauges Telescopic gauges are not suitable for measuring holes below 12.7mm. For measuring smaller holes and slots, small hole gauges are used. Construction A...
