Fowler 52-470-006-0 Telescoping Gage Set 6 Pc

Product Description

The FOWLER 52-470-006-0 is a 6-piece telescoping gage set designed for measuring inside diameters, bores, and slots. Each gage features a spring-loaded plunger that locks at the measured dimension, allowing the technician to transfer the reading to a micrometer or caliper for a precise measurement. The set covers a range from 5/16 inches to 6 inches, making it suitable for a wide variety of bore sizes encountered in machining, engine rebuilding, and precision maintenance work. Gages are constructed from hardened tool steel with a satin chrome finish that resists corrosion and reduces glare during use.

This telescoping gage set is suited for machine shops, tool rooms, automotive service facilities, and general precision maintenance environments. Technicians use these gages when measuring cylinder bores, bushing IDs, bearing housings, and hydraulic valve bodies where a direct-reading inside micrometer is impractical. The set handles measuring tasks across six overlapping size ranges, and the included fitted vinyl case keeps each gage organized and protected during storage and transport.

Key Features

• Six-piece set covers 5/16 inches to 6 inches inside diameter range
• Hardened tool steel construction for durability and dimensional stability
• Satin chrome finish resists corrosion and minimizes glare
• Spring-loaded, lockable plungers for repeatable transfer measurements
• Gage lengths range from 4-3/8 inches to 5-7/8 inches overall
• Fitted vinyl case included for organized storage and field transport

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose inside measuring tool compatible with standard outside micrometers and digital calipers used to read transferred dimensions in precision machining and maintenance applications.

Installation Notes

Telescoping gages are installed by a machinist, toolmaker, or precision maintenance technician and require no permanent mounting or fasteners. Before use, ensure the gage plunger moves freely and the locking mechanism holds securely without slipping. Always transfer the locked gage dimension to a calibrated micrometer on a flat, stable surface to avoid measurement error. Clean and dry gages before returning them to the vinyl case to prevent corrosion.
