Vermont Gage 262114500 Tapped Hole Location Gage M5x0.8

Product Description

The VERMONT GAGE 262114500 is a tapped hole location gage designed to verify the precise position of a threaded hole in a workpiece. It threads directly into the tapped hole and provides a reference point for measuring the hole's location relative to a datum surface or adjacent features. The gage is manufactured to a metric M5 x 0.8 thread specification and ships with a Certificate of Accuracy. Machinists, toolroom technicians, and quality control inspectors use this type of gage during in-process inspection and final part verification on machined components.

This gage is suited for inspection of tapped holes in precision machined parts where hole location must be confirmed against a print tolerance. It is commonly used in production environments, tool rooms, and quality labs working with metric-threaded components. The M5 x 0.8 thread size makes it applicable to light-duty fastener locations found in automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing assemblies. Each unit includes a Certificate of Accuracy for traceability to measurement standards.

Key Features

• M5 x 0.8 metric thread form for direct engagement with tapped holes
• Measures tapped hole location relative to a reference surface or feature
• Includes Certificate of Accuracy for metrology traceability
• Compact and lightweight at 0.01 pounds for easy bench and floor use
• Single-piece package quantity ready for immediate use on receipt

Compatibility

Designed for use with M5 x 0.8 metric tapped holes in machined workpieces. Applicable wherever a metric thread location gage is required to verify hole position per a part drawing or inspection plan.

Installation Notes

This gage is an inspection tool, not a permanent installation component. Thread the gage into the tapped hole by hand to full engagement before taking any location measurements. Do not apply power tools or excessive torque when threading in the gage, as this may damage the gage or the workpiece threads. Follow your shop or quality plan for surface plate setup and measurement procedure.
