Vermont Gage 141204700 Class X Minus Pin Gage 0.047 in

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 141204700 is a Class X Minus pin gage designed for precision measurement work in metrology, quality control, and manufacturing environments. The gage measures 0.047 inches in diameter and 2 inches in length, with a tolerance of -0.00004 inches, placing it in the Class X Minus category for tight, reliable go/no-go verification. Constructed from tool steel with a 4 microinch surface finish, this pin gage delivers the dimensional consistency required for calibrating measuring equipment or directly gaging production parts. Each unit ships with a Certificate of Accuracy carrying NIST traceability.

Class X Minus pin gages like the 141204700 are used in production inspection, incoming quality inspection, and calibration lab environments. They are suited for checking hole diameters, slot widths, and bore features in precision-machined components across aerospace, automotive, fluid power, and general manufacturing. The sub-0.050-inch diameter makes this gage appropriate for small-bore and close-tolerance applications where standard drill rod or go/no-go plug gages lack the precision required. Machinists, quality technicians, and metrology lab personnel are the primary users.

Key Features

• Class X Minus tolerance of -0.00004 inches for high-precision dimensional verification
• 0.047 inch diameter suits small-bore and close-tolerance hole inspection
• Tool steel construction provides durability and dimensional stability
• 4 microinch surface finish supports accurate, repeatable gage contact
• Includes Certificate of Accuracy with NIST traceability for calibration documentation
• 2 inch length provides adequate handling clearance in most inspection fixtures

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style precision gage for use with standard pin gage handles and gage block sets in metrology and quality control applications.

Installation Notes

Pin gages are handled and stored by quality technicians and metrology personnel following standard gage care procedures. Always clean the gage and the part feature before use to prevent debris from affecting measurement accuracy. Store in a protective case away from tools and surfaces that could nick or scratch the gage body, as surface damage will void dimensional accuracy. Never force a pin gage into a feature; light hand pressure is the correct technique.
