Mic before use Gages?

gt143744
Hi guys, we have our ISO audit coming up and every one is freaking out about it. I've been told to make sure everything has a clean and legible calibration sticker, but we have some gages that are "mic before use"/"verify before use" gages and I have NO idea how to label them and my manager isn't helping. We have spots for calibrator, date, date due, and gage number but I have no information for the calibrator, date, or date due because, well, they aren't really calibrated. I don't want to label them wrong because I'll get in trouble if the auditor doesn't like them, but I have no idea how to label them correctly. This was the only place I could think of to get help.

Thanks.

  • You can mark them "For Reference Only" if it's big enough to put a sticker on it. If not, place the item in a bag and label that. I'm curious what type of measurement equipment you have that you "Mic before use".

    It is gage pin sets, yes. I can't find any record of calibration at any point. Our surface plate is also 40 years out of calibration so we don't run a very tight ship here. I was worried that "for reference only" would be bad considering we use them on final inspectons/process capability studies/PPAPs so I just put the gage numbers on the set. My manager did tell me to put my initials but I'm not that stupid.
