1. A clamp tightness gauge for determining the clamping tightness of compressed sections having passages between adjacent section, the gauge having:

  • a frame;

    a pair of spaced apart fingers having opposed insertable ends adapted to be inserted into a passage between compressed adjacent sections, at least one insertable and being resilient;

    an arm pivotably attached to the frame;

    a loading means moveably mounted on the frame in operative engagement with the pivotably attached arm for pivoting the arm;

    a wedge member operatively attached to the pivotably attached arm and having a tapered end, the tapered end slideably engaged with the opposed insertable ends of the fingers for urging the opposed insertable ends of the fingers against the sections when the loading means operatively engages the pivotably attached arm;

    means connected to the wedge member for determining the slideable displacement of the tapered end of the wedge member; and

    means connected to the pivotably attached arm for determining the force exerted on the tapered end of the wedge member through the insertable ends of the fingers by the sections.
