Vermont Gage 111408850 Class Zz Minus Plug Pin Gage 0.0885 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 111408850 is a Class ZZ minus plug pin gage sized at 0.0885 inches in diameter for NoGo inspection applications. It is manufactured from steel and carries a 10 microfinish coating for consistent surface quality. The gage holds a tolerance of 0.0002 inches, making it suitable for verifying that a feature does not exceed its maximum material condition limit. Overall length is 2 inches. Machinists, quality control technicians, and metrologists use this type of pin gage in production and inspection environments where dimensional conformance must be verified to close tolerances.

This pin gage is used in NoGo inspection routines to confirm hole and bore dimensions do not fall outside specified limits. It is also suited for setting and calibrating micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices. The 2-inch overall length provides adequate grip for use in standard hand-held inspection procedures on the shop floor or in a dedicated metrology lab. Each unit ships with a Certificate of Accuracy traceable to NIST standards, supporting documented quality systems and audit requirements.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use as a NoGo inspection gage and as a setting reference for micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices where a 0.0885 inch diameter reference is required.

Installation Notes

Pin gages of this type are handled by quality technicians and machinists trained in precision measurement practices. Keep the gage clean and lightly oiled when not in use to prevent corrosion on the steel surface. Never force the gage into a feature — NoGo gages should not enter a conforming hole, and excessive insertion force can damage both the gage and the workpiece. Store in a protective case away from temperature extremes to maintain dimensional stability.
