Spi 13-152-4 Dial Thickness Gage 0-0.5in 0.001in Grad

Product Description

The SPI 13-152-4 is a dial thickness gage designed for fast, accurate measurement of material thickness in inspection and quality-control applications. It reads from 0 to 0.5 inches with a graduation of 0.001 inches, giving technicians precise readings without the need for electronic readouts or external power. The 2.25-inch dial face is large enough for quick single-handed reads, and the retractable handle allows efficient, repetitive inspection passes. The stainless steel spindle resists wear and corrosion in shop environments. This gage is well suited for machinists, QC inspectors, sheet metal fabricators, and tool-and-die tradespeople who need dependable hand-tool measurements on the bench or in the field.

This thickness gage is appropriate for measuring flat stock, sheet metal, gaskets, shims, plastic sheet, rubber, and similar materials where a consistent, repeatable measurement method is required. The flat anvil tip makes full contact with parallel surfaces, reducing measurement error on smooth or machined workpieces. The 1.125-inch throat depth accommodates a range of material widths without requiring repositioning. Single-handed operation makes it practical in production-line inspection scenarios where the other hand holds the workpiece.

Key Features

• Measurement range of 0 to 0.5 inches with 0.001-inch graduation for precise thickness readings
• Flat anvil tip ensures full contact on parallel and smooth surfaces
• 1.125-inch throat depth accommodates a variety of workpiece widths
• 2.25-inch dial diameter for clear, easy-to-read single-handed operation
• Retractable handle enables quick and efficient repetitive inspection
• Stainless steel spindle for durability and corrosion resistance in shop conditions

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose dial thickness gage suitable for bench inspection, sheet metal, gasket, shim, and flat-stock measurement applications across machining, fabrication, and quality-control trades.

Installation Notes

No installation is required for this hand-held inspection gage. Before use, verify the gage zeroes correctly with the anvils fully closed on a clean, flat reference surface. Keep the spindle and anvil faces free of debris to ensure accurate readings. Store the gage in its case when not in use to protect the dial mechanism and spindle from damage.
