Vermont Gage 111116200 Class Zz Plus Plug Gage 0.162 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 111116200 is a Class ZZ Plus plug gage machined from tool steel for go-type dimensional inspection. It measures a nominal diameter of 0.162 inches with a tolerance of 0.0002 inches, providing the precision required to verify whether a bore or hole falls within acceptable limits. The gage has an overall length of 2.0 inches and a 10 microfinish surface finish, which supports accurate, repeatable contact with the workpiece. A Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability is included, making it suitable for use in quality-controlled environments where documented calibration is required. Machinists, quality technicians, and tool-and-die professionals are the primary users of this type of gage.

This plug gage is intended for go inspection applications where the technician needs to confirm that a drilled, reamed, or bored hole is at or above the minimum acceptable size. It is also suited for setting and verifying micrometers, verniers, and other measuring devices to a known reference dimension. The compact 2.0-inch overall length makes it easy to handle in both bench inspection and in-process checking scenarios. It is appropriate for use in manufacturing, machine shops, and quality assurance labs working to tight hole tolerances.

Key Features

• Class ZZ Plus tolerance classification for go-type bore inspection
• 0.162-inch nominal measurement diameter with 0.0002-inch tolerance
• 10 microfinish surface finish for consistent, accurate contact
• Tool steel construction for durability and dimensional stability
• Conforms to ASME B89.1 standards
• Includes Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability

Compatibility

Designed for go inspection of holes and bores at 0.162 inches nominal diameter, and for setting micrometers, verniers, and other measuring devices requiring a traceable reference standard at this diameter.

Installation Notes

Plug gages of this type are handled and used by quality technicians and machinists following standard metrology practices. Keep the gage clean and lightly oiled when not in use to prevent corrosion of the tool steel. Do not force the gage into a hole; excessive insertion force can damage both the gage and the workpiece. Store in a protective case away from temperature extremes to maintain dimensional stability.
