In most of the press tools, the stock material is fed into the tool in the form of long strips. For the efficient functioning of the tool, the strip should be guided longitudinally during its travel through the tool. This is achieved by employing gauges. In a press tool whenever the stock material is fed in the form of strip it is fed in between the back gauge and the front gauge. Back gauge is the actual gauging member and the function of the front guage is only to provide an approximate gauging.
