Vermont Gage 111101400 Class Zz Plus Plug Gage 0.014 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 111101400 is a Class ZZ Plus plug gage designed for precision dimensional inspection of small-diameter bores and holes. Manufactured from tool steel with a 10 microfinish surface, this gage measures a nominal diameter of 0.014 inches with a tolerance of 0.0002 inches. It has an overall length of 2.0 inches, making it well suited for use in tight workholding and inspection setups. A Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability is included, supporting quality documentation requirements in regulated manufacturing environments. Machinists, quality control technicians, and metrology professionals install and use this gage as part of go inspection routines.

This plug gage is used in go inspection applications to verify that a drilled, reamed, or otherwise machined hole meets minimum size requirements. It is also compatible with setting and calibrating micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices. The 0.014-inch diameter targets very fine-tolerance work common in medical device manufacturing, aerospace components, precision instrument machining, and other industries where sub-thousandth accuracy is required. Suitable for bench inspection stations and production floor quality checks alike.

Key Features

• Class ZZ Plus tolerance rating for high-accuracy go inspection of small-diameter features
• 0.014 inches nominal measurement diameter with 0.0002 inches tolerance
• Tool steel construction for hardness and dimensional stability in repeated use
• 10 microfinish surface finish minimizes wear on mating bores during inspection
• Meets ASME B89.1 standard for gage dimensional accuracy
• Includes Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability for documentation and audit compliance

Compatibility

Designed for go inspection of machined bores and holes at 0.014 inches nominal diameter, and for use in setting micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices per ASME B89.1 requirements.

Installation Notes

Plug gages of this size are handled and used by quality control technicians and machinists on inspection benches or production floors. Keep the gage clean and lightly oiled when not in use to prevent corrosion and maintain surface finish. Never force a plug gage into a bore; insertion should be smooth and consistent with the go or no-go condition being checked. Store in the provided case or a protected location to avoid contact with other metal tooling that could damage the precision surface.
