Vermont Gage 111414950 Class Zz Minus Plug Pin Gage 0.1495 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 111414950 is a Class ZZ Minus plug pin gage ground to a nominal diameter of 0.1495 inches with a tolerance of 0.0002 inches. This single-end pin gage is designed for NoGo inspection applications, verifying that a hole or bore does not exceed the maximum allowable limit. Machined from steel with a 10 microfinish surface coating, it delivers consistent, repeatable measurements in quality-control and production environments. Each gage ships with a Certificate of Accuracy traceable to NIST, satisfying documentation requirements for ISO and AS9100 quality systems. Overall length is 2 inches.

This pin gage is suited for use in manufacturing, machining, and inspection departments where tight-tolerance hole verification is required. It is compatible with standard gage handle sets for convenient single-hand operation. Beyond NoGo hole inspection, the 0.1495-inch diameter makes it a practical reference standard for setting micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices. Typical users include quality technicians, machinists, tool-and-die makers, and metrology lab personnel working in both production and job-shop environments.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard Class ZZ Minus plug pin gage for use with conventional gage handle sets and suitable for NoGo inspection of holes nominally sized at 0.1495 inches, as well as for setting and verifying micrometers, verniers, and other precision measuring devices.

Installation Notes

Pin gages should be handled with clean, dry hands or lint-free gloves to prevent corrosion from skin oils. Before use, inspect the gage surface for nicks or burrs that could affect measurement accuracy. When inserting into a bore, apply light, steady hand pressure only — never force the gage or use it as a drift pin. Store the gage in its protective case or sleeve when not in use to maintain the ground surface finish.
