Abstract
A gap measurement tool assembly for measuring a gap at a through hole between mating parts of a structure is provided. The assembly includes a gap measurement tool with a first end, a second end, and a body having a hollow inner channel, an exterior annular crevice, a first exterior annular groove having a cross-hole intersected by the hollow inner channel, and a second exterior annular groove. The assembly includes a first seal element, a second seal element, and a third seal element. The assembly is configured for insertion and sealing into the through hole, and the cross-hole is configured to align with the gap. When compressed air is passed into the gap, an air gage system takes a measurement of one of, a back pressure, an air flow, or a differential pressure, and correlates the measurement to a predetermined gap measurement, to determine a gap size of the gap.
