Explanation:

Go gauge: A go Gauge will check all the dimensions of the workpiece in what is called the maximum metal condition (indicating the presence of the greatest amount of material permitted at a prescribed surface).

Maximum material condition:

  • For hole: lower limit
  • For shaft: upper limit

NoGo gauge: No Go Gauges shall check only one dimension of the workpiece at a time, for the minimum metal conditions (indicating the presence of the least amount of material permitted at a prescribed surface) size. 

Minimum material condition:

  • For hole: upper limit
  • For shaft: lower limit

Tolerance is the difference between the upper limit and the lower limit of a dimension.

The allowance is the amount of designed (intentional) deviation between two mating dimensions in a fit. It is calculated as the difference between the maximum shaft size and the minimum hole size is known as allowance.
