PEX INSTRUCTION SHEET PEX Go/No-Go Gauge 1. Slide the correct slot on the gauge around the crimped ring. 2. If the ring does not fit into the “Go” slot at all, but fits into the “No-Go” slot, then the crimp is not correct. Remove the incorrectly crimped ring from the PEX pipe, adjust the crimping force on the tool and repeat the crimping process. 3. If the ring slides into the slot and stops in the “Go” range at least at one point, then the crimp is good.
