Vermont Gage 141148800 Class X Plus Pin Gage 0.488 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 141148800 is a Class X Plus pin gage designed for high-precision measurement work in metrology and quality control environments. Machined from tool steel with a 4 micro finish, this gage measures 0.488 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length. It holds a tolerance of +0.00004 inches, placing it in the tightest commercially available accuracy class for go/no-go and direct part gaging. Each unit ships with a Certificate of Accuracy traceable to NIST, supporting documentation requirements in calibrated inspection environments. Machinists, quality technicians, and metrology professionals use this gage for direct part measurement and calibration of measuring equipment.

This pin gage is suited for use in machine shops, quality labs, and production inspection stations where tight dimensional verification is required. It is appropriate for both bench-top calibration setups and in-process part checking. The 2-inch length provides sufficient handling clearance for most standard gage block and bore applications. Its compact size and precise finish make it practical for checking hole diameters, slots, and other features requiring sub-thousandth verification.

Key Features

• Class X Plus tolerance of +0.00004 inches for highest-accuracy go/no-go and direct gaging
• Tool steel construction for hardness and wear resistance in repeated-use applications
• 4 micro surface finish for consistent contact and accurate seating in bores
• Includes Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability for calibrated lab documentation
• 0.488 inch diameter, 2 inch length for standard inspection workflows

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-use precision gage for calibration of measuring equipment or for gaging parts directly in applications requiring Class X Plus accuracy at 0.488 inches diameter.

Installation Notes

Pin gages are handled and used by quality technicians and metrologists in inspection environments. Keep the gage clean and lightly oiled when stored to prevent corrosion on the tool steel surface. Never force a pin gage into a bore; insertion should be smooth and free of lateral loading to avoid measurement error or surface damage. Store in a protective case away from other metal tooling to preserve the finish and dimensional integrity.
