Everkeen Pin Gauge Set Hardened Steel Precision Inspection

Description

Product Overview

The Everkeen Pin Gauge Set is engineered for precision measurement in industrial and scientific applications. Constructed from hardened bearing steel with a hardness of 60-62 HRC, this tool maintains tight tolerances of ±0.0002 inches and stability within ±0.01 inches across its 2-inch measuring length. The ultra-smooth finish, with a surface roughness of ≤10μm, ensures consistent and repeatable measurements. Key specifications include package dimensions of 13.11 x 8.7 x 2.83 inches, a weight of 4.08 pounds, and laser-etched size markings that remain visible even under heavy use. Designed to check hole sizes ranging from 0.061 to 0.250 inches, it also verifies slot widths, keyways, and V-groove alignment, making it an essential tool for quality assurance.

Usage

This pin gauge set is ideal for machinists and quality control inspectors working in production environments, workshops, and manufacturing facilities. It is commonly used for verifying hole positions, gear grooves, milling cutter alignment, and part wear patterns. The tool excels in go/no-go testing, where the go-end (0.2500-0.2502 inches) should slide easily into holes, indicating proper size, while the no-go-end (0.2548-0.2550 inches) must not enter, flagging oversized holes for scrap. It is also effective for checking drill and chuck runout, dovetail slots, and calibrating calipers or micrometers. For optimal performance, users should clean both the parts and gauges before testing to avoid inaccuracies.
