    Class Z Plug Gauges

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plug Gauges. Class Z Plug Gauges.
    Also known as pin gauges, these Class Z plug gauges help you measure hole size and depth, check hole location and distance, and set micrometers. All come with a certificate of accuracy traceable to NIST that states they've passed a test for accuracy.
    If a go gauge can enter the hole and a no-go gauge is unable to enter, the hole is within tolerance.
    Go Gauges—Go gauges check the minimum hole diameter.
    No-Go Gauges—No-go gauges check the maximum hole diameter.

    Go/No-Go Hex Plug Gauges with Handle

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plug Gauges. Go/No-Go Hex Plug Gauges with Handle.
    Confirm hex drives on socket head screws are within tolerance. A go and no-go gauge in one, these gauges are handy for testing hole size and depth in machining and manufacturing. Their handle gives you a good grip to insert each end into the hole you’re measuring. If the go gauge enters the hole and the no-go gauge is unable to enter, the hole is within tolerance. Gauges are made of tool steel, the most common material for plug gauges, because it’s strong, hard, and resistant to wear.
    All come with an accuracy certificate traceable to NIST to certify their sizes are within tolerance. They also meet ASME B18.3, the same dimensional standards for hex drive fasteners.

    Plug Gauges with Handle

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plug Gauges. Plug Gauges with Handle.
    Take go and no-go measurements with the same tool. These gauges have a go gauge on one end, a no-go gauge on the other end, and a handle with bushings. They are used for precision go/no-go measuring of hole sizes and depths, checking hole location and distance, and setting micrometers. All come with an accuracy certificate traceable to NIST.
    Check the minimum hole diameter with the go gauge end, and check the maximum hole diameter with the no-go gauge end. If the go gauge enters the hole and the no-go gauge is unable to enter, the hole is within tolerance.
