Thread ring gauge M48 x 3 mm – hardened gauge steel, DIN 13 (6g)

The thread ring gauge M48 x 3 mm is a right‑hand metric ISO fine thread gauge for fast, repeatable verification of external threads in manufacturing and inspection environments.

• Hardened gauge steel construction
• DIN 13 tolerance class 6g
• Metric fine thread M48 x 3 mm
• Right‑hand, workshop-ready

Fast conformity checks for metric fine threads

A compact ring gauge such as this is designed for straight‑forward verification of external threads with the clear objective of confirming conformity to the DIN 13 specification. Built for routine production checks, the device gives immediate, unambiguous results that accelerate quality control: parts are accepted when the gauge fits and rejected when it does not. This direct form of verification reduces measurement time and avoids interpretation errors associated with indirect inspection methods, improving throughput without sacrificing traceability.

Durable construction that reduces rework and downtime

Manufactured from hardened gauge steel, the component combines dimensional stability with wear resistance to withstand repeated engagement with threaded parts. The solid construction and a mass of 0.94 kg provide a reassuring feel and support consistent engagement, which preserves the 6g tolerance class across long production runs. The material choice minimises the frequency of replacement and helps maintain production continuity, lowering hidden costs associated with replacement and rework.

Suitable for machine shops and assembly lines

Engineered specifically for metric ISO fine threads, the gauge supports verification where high repeatability matters—such as assembly of precision housings, hydraulic components or demanding fastener applications. The right‑hand orientation and the M48 x 3 mm thread size make it suitable for a wide range of components commonly produced in metalworking shops. Integration into routine inspection stages is straightforward and contributes to a reliable quality gate in the production process.

Practical handling and storage for everyday use

Despite being robust, the gauge is sized for practical handling during repetitive checks; the ring form factor allows quick engagement with external threads and easy stowage in a tool tray. The clear identification by standard (DIN 13, 6g) and the manufacturer SKU ensure unambiguous use in the workshop and stock management. For specialised traceability requirements, Metav can advise on labelling and storage options that protect the gauge and preserve its conformity over time.
