Cable Diameter Gauge

The Loos & Co. GA-4 is an aluminum gauge designed to measure cable diameters between 1/16 and 3/8 inch. It serves rigging professionals, marine technicians and maintenance crews who need to verify wire-rope size on site. The lightweight aluminum construction resists corrosion in outdoor and saltwater environments. First listed by the manufacturer on 19 June 2021.

Fit for purpose

This tool suits anyone who must confirm that a cable falls within the 1/16 to 3/8 inch range before installation or inspection. It is not suitable for users who need to measure thicker wire rope, metric-only dimensions or internal bore diameters. The single-range design cannot replace a full set of gauges for broader sizing tasks.

Measuring range

The decisive specification is the 1/16 to 3/8 inch measuring range stamped on the gauge. If the cables you work with fall outside this span, a different gauge will be required.

Questions about this item

How do the 1/16 to 3/8 inch markings translate when I am sizing wire rope on site?

The gauge covers the full range from one sixteenth up to three eighths of an inch, letting you match the cable diameter directly without conversion tables.

What standard do the slot sizes follow, and does that limit which cables I can check?

The slots follow common wire-rope gauge spacing, so any cable within the marked range can be verified quickly.

Will the aluminum body hold up to daily use in a tool bag, and how does it mount?

The lightweight aluminum construction resists corrosion and slides into a pocket or hangs from a lanyard hole for easy access.
