Tesa Brown Sharpe 599-8931 Round Depth Gage Base

Product Description

The TESA BROWN SHARPE 599-8931 is a round depth gage base designed for use with dial depth gages in precision measurement applications. The base features a 0.052-inch contact point hole diameter, allowing it to accept standard dial depth gage contact points for accurate depth readings. This accessory provides a stable, flat seating surface that rests flush against a workpiece while the contact point reaches into a bore, slot, or stepped feature to take a measurement. It is a direct replacement or supplemental base for technicians and machinists who need a reliable seating component for their depth gage setup.

This round base is suited for dimensional inspection work in manufacturing, machining, and quality control environments. It is used wherever a dial depth gage must be seated stably on a flat reference surface to measure the depth of a hole, counterbore, recess, or similar feature. The round base geometry allows for consistent positioning on a variety of workpiece surfaces and is a standard configuration among precision measuring instrument accessories.

Key Features

• Round base profile provides stable, consistent seating on flat reference surfaces
• 0.052-inch contact point hole diameter accommodates standard dial depth gage contact points
• Compatible with dial depth gages for precise depth measurement
• Lightweight at 0.85 pounds for easy handling during inspection tasks
• OEM-style replacement design maintains measurement accuracy

Compatibility

Designed for use with dial depth gages. Verify contact point hole diameter compatibility with your specific dial depth gage model before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or metrology technicians familiar with precision measurement instruments. Ensure the contact point and base are clean and free of debris before assembly to avoid measurement error. Do not overtighten the contact point into the base hole, as this may damage the seating thread or alter the contact point position. Handle precision gage components with care to prevent damage to contact surfaces.
