Gage Length

Gage length is an important consideration in strain gage selection, and is usually the first parameter to be defined.


The gage length is the dimension of the active grid as measured inside the grid endloops. In the pattern designation system, the gage length (GGG ) is given in mils [0.001 in ( 0.0254 mm)].
