Introducing the official character

Introducing our official characters, ``Gauge-kun'' and ``Little Gauge.''
They work every day to convey our thoughts and efforts.

Gauge-kun

ASK Public Relations Ambassador. The guide of this site.

A glycerin pressure gauge that knows everything about ASK products.

▷Coloring is my favorite and I always carry it with me for popularization activities.

Little gauge

Gauge-kun's assistant.

Honor student who can stand around even in a narrow place by taking advantage of his small features.The pointer pointing straight down is a novel design that is not bound by common sense!

【Explanation of features】

Gauge-kun's nose is a guide, always pointing out accurate information. On his head he proudly wears a hat emblazoned with the 'ASK' logo, symbolizing our brand. Gauge-kun's favorite is the patented "coloring" that allows you to freely adjust the color range ratio. His mission is to use this to communicate our originality to as many users as possible in an easy-to-understand manner. Little Gauge is a small glycerin pressure gauge that walks on four legs and features a tail-like screw protruding from the back and a SUS ball on the sole of the foot. Of course, he also proudly wears a hat with the logo on it. We hope that you can feel our technological capabilities and possibilities through these characters.
