Vermont Gage 141118700 Class X Plus Pin Gage 0.187 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 141118700 is a Class X Plus precision pin gage manufactured from tool steel, designed for direct part gaging and calibration of measuring equipment. With a nominal diameter of 0.187 inches and a length of 2 inches, this pin gage holds a tight tolerance of +0.00004 inches, placing it in the highest accuracy class for go/no-go and attribute inspection work. A surface finish of 4 microinches contributes to consistent, repeatable contact during measurement. Each unit ships with a Certificate of Accuracy carrying NIST traceability, making it suitable for use in ISO- and AS9100-compliant quality systems. Machinists, quality technicians, and metrology professionals rely on this type of gage for high-precision hole and bore verification.

This pin gage is used in machine shops, manufacturing facilities, and inspection labs where tight dimensional tolerances must be verified quickly and reliably. It is appropriate for incoming inspection, in-process quality control, and calibration lab use. The 0.187-inch diameter makes it well suited for verifying small-bore features in machined components, fixtures, and tooling. The NIST-traceable certificate supports documentation requirements in regulated manufacturing environments including aerospace, automotive, and medical device production.

Compatibility

Designed as a precision attribute gage for use with standard pin gage handles and sets in any inspection or metrology application requiring 0.187-inch diameter verification.

Installation Notes

Pin gages should be handled with clean, dry hands or lint-free gloves to prevent corrosion from skin oils. Store in a protective case away from abrasive surfaces to preserve the lapped finish and dimensional accuracy. Do not force the gage into a bore; apply only light, controlled pressure to avoid damage to both the gage and the workpiece. Calibration intervals should follow your facility quality plan and applicable metrology standards.
