M40×3 Limit thread plug gauge — Metric ISO fine thread, right-hand (Metav IndustryLine)

The M40×3 limit thread plug gauge verifies metric ISO fine threads to DIN 13 with a 6H tolerance; designed as a right‑hand plug gauge for fast go/no‑go checks in workshop and inspection environments.

• Metric ISO fine thread M40×3
• DIN 13 tolerance class 6H
• Hardened gauge steel construction
• Right‑hand limit plug for quick checks

Ensure conformity at speed on the shop floor

A compact verification tool that brings measurable efficiency: the plug gauge provides a direct, mechanical answer to whether an internal thread meets the M40×3 specification and DIN 13 / 6H tolerance. The limit design enables immediate go/no‑go assessment, reducing time spent at the micrometre and lowering cycle times for batch inspections. For production environments where throughput and traceable acceptance are essential, this plug gauge simplifies decision‑making and cuts rework.

Robust material and geometry for long service life

Constructed from hardened gauge steel, the gauge resists wear and preserves the reference geometry that defines reliable thread assessment. The solid build and mass contribute to a stable feel during engagement, which supports repeatable results over extended use. Durable materials reduce the frequency of reworking or replacements, helping to maintain quality controls without frequent downtime for gauge renewal.

Fits established quality workflows and traceability needs

Designed for straightforward integration into inspection routines, the limit plug gauge is suitable for in‑process checks, final inspections and incoming goods control. With a clear SKU (M315.040.8) and GTIN reference, the item is easy to catalogue and trace within an inventory or quality management system. The gauge supports machinists and quality engineers in maintaining consistent standards across batches, ensuring thread conformity before assembly or shipment.

FAQ

What thread size and tolerance does this gauge check?
The gauge checks metric ISO fine threads sized M40×3 and is manufactured to DIN 13 with a 6H tolerance class.

How is the limit plug gauge used in inspection?
A limit plug gauge engages the internal thread; the correct (go) condition confirms the thread is within tolerance while the limiting end indicates excessive deviation, enabling quick acceptance or rejection during routine checks.

Is the gauge suitable for heavy daily use in a workshop?
Yes. The hardened gauge steel construction and solid build make the gauge appropriate for frequent use in machining and inspection environments where repeatability is required.

Which identifier should be used for ordering or inventory?
Reference SKU M315.040.8 (GTIN 4054469123240) when ordering or logging the gauge in a parts system.
