Inside/outside distance
The inside/outside distance describes the geometric difference between the inner and outer diameters of a component. This dimension is particularly relevant for receptacles, collars, press rings, or contact holders and influences fit accuracy, stability, and mountability. In testing technology, the inside/outside distance is crucial for the secure fixation of Contact Probes, the mechanical load capacity, and the interchangeability of components within a Test Fixture.
FAQ
The inner/outer distance determines the possible packing density and the available installation space in the Test Fixture.
A small distance allows for compact test setups, but requires precise alignment of the contacting elements.
Spacing is particularly important in fine-pitch applications and where installation space is limited.
