Spi 17-612-3 Electronic Depth Gage 0-8 in Stainless Steel

Product Description

The SPI 17-612-3 is an electronic depth gage with a measuring range of 0 to 8 inches, designed for precise depth measurement of slots, holes, shoulders, and recessed surfaces. It delivers 0.0005-inch resolution and 0.0015-inch accuracy, making it suitable for quality control, toolroom work, and production inspection. The 4-inch base length provides stable seating across a variety of workpiece geometries. Constructed from stainless steel, the gage resists corrosion and daily shop wear. Built-in SPC and USB data output allows direct connection to statistical process control software or a PC for measurement logging and analysis.

The 17-612-3 is used in precision machining, toolroom, and manufacturing inspection applications where reliable depth measurement is required. The IP54 water resistance rating protects against splash and light coolant exposure in typical shop environments. The included hook accessory extends measurement versatility for stepped or undercut features. It is appropriate for use by machinists, quality technicians, and metrology professionals in both job-shop and production-floor settings. A single CR2032 battery is included, and the gage powers on ready to measure.

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose electronic depth gage for use with standard flat reference surfaces in machining and inspection applications. No specific equipment compatibility restrictions are stated by the manufacturer.

Installation Notes

Electronic depth gages are handled and set up by machinists or metrology technicians — no power source or wiring is required beyond the included battery. Before use, ensure the base and reference surface are clean and free of burrs or chips that could affect seating and introduce measurement error. When connecting via USB for SPC data output, confirm the receiving software or interface supports the standard data format for the connected device. Store the gage in its case when not in use to protect the sliding beam and base faces.
