4.3. Die Closure Inspection

Every die set is inspected for proper die closure

dimensions before packaging. An inspection should

be performed periodically to inspect the die closure for

excessive wear.

Die closure inspection is accomplished using GO

NO-GO plug gages. TE Connectivity neither

manufactures nor sells plug gages. A suggested plug

gage design and the GO NO-GO dimensions of the

plug gage elements are listed in Figures 4 and 5. The

following procedure is recommended for inspecting

the die closure.
