Spi 13-151-6 Dial Thickness Gage 0-0.05 in

Product Description

The SPI 13-151-6 is a dial thickness gage designed for precise measurement of material thickness in inspection and quality control applications. It provides a measurement range of 0 to 0.05 inches with a graduation of 0.0001 inches, making it suitable for applications that demand fine resolution. The 2-1/4 inch dial face is easy to read at a glance, and the stainless steel spindle resists wear and corrosion during repeated use. The retractable handle enables single-handed operation, allowing technicians to hold the workpiece with one hand while taking a reading with the other. This gage is used by machinists, quality control inspectors, and trade professionals who need fast, accurate thickness verification.

The 13-151-6 is well suited for quick and efficient inspection of sheet metal, gaskets, shims, foils, and other thin materials. The 1-1/8 inch throat depth allows the gage to reach past edges and flanges to measure interior sections. The flat anvil tip provides consistent contact across flat workpiece surfaces. This model is appropriate for both production floor and bench inspection environments where single-handed operation and speed are priorities.

Key Features

• Measurement range of 0 to 0.05 inches with 0.0001 inch graduation for high-resolution readings
• Flat anvil tip ensures consistent contact on flat surfaces
• 1-1/8 inch throat depth allows measurement past edges and flanges
• 2-1/4 inch dial diameter for easy readability
• Retractable handle supports single-handed operation
• Stainless steel spindle for durability and corrosion resistance

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose dial thickness gage suitable for inspection of flat materials including sheet metal, gaskets, shims, and similar thin workpieces where measurements within the 0 to 0.05 inch range are required.

Installation Notes

Dial thickness gages require no installation but should be calibrated or zeroed against a known reference standard before use. Handle the gage carefully to avoid dropping or impacting the dial mechanism, which can affect calibration. Store the gage in its case when not in use to protect the spindle and anvil surfaces from contamination and damage.
