Gauge pin M323.042 – precision inspection pin, 0.42 mm, ±0.002 mm (Metav IndustryLine)

A gauge pin M323.042 designed for precision dimensional checks and fixture verification in inspection benches and workshop environments.

• 0.42 mm diameter, tolerance ±0.002 mm
• Special steel construction for wear resistance
• Pin length 40 mm, total length 57 mm
• Workshop version for routine inspection tasks

High-precision measurement that improves process reliability

Engineered for tight dimensional control, the 0.42 mm diameter pin with a ±0.002 mm specification delivers reproducible contact geometry for go/no‑go checks and repeat measurements. The fine tolerance reduces measurement scatter and increases confidence in sorting and inspection steps. Where small bores or pin gauges are used as reference elements in fixtures, the consistent shaft diameter and cylindricity minimise positional error and help maintain traceability across repeated sampling.

Durable workshop design for daily inspection cycles

Built in a workshop version with special steel, the probe resists surface wear and withstands routine handling in production areas. The pin length 40 mm combined with a total length 57 mm provides sufficient engagement depth for many common verification tasks while keeping the accessible shank length for secure clamping or manual handling. The low mass (approx. 0.003 kg) reduces the risk of impact damage during use and simplifies insertion in delicate assemblies, preserving accuracy over extended service intervals.

Practical integration and quality-control benefits

Supplied individually, the component is straightforward to replace within modular fixtures or as a single spare element in quality departments. The compact geometry makes it suitable for close‑pitch layouts and small‑bore inspection, while the clearly defined nominal size supports catalogue management and inventory control under SKU M323.042. Using standardised pins with documented tolerances streamlines inspection protocols and supports consistent decision thresholds in incoming inspection, in‑process checks and final acceptance routines.

FAQ

What measurement accuracy can be expected from this gauge pin?
The gauge pin is specified at ±0.002 mm tolerance; this precision supports repeatable go/no‑go checks and fine‑tolerance inspection tasks.

Is the pin suitable for use in inspection fixtures and jigs?
Yes, the workshop execution and the pin length 40 mm with a total length 57 mm make it suitable for fixture mounting and routine verification applications.

What material is the probe made from and how does that affect wear?
The probe is made from special steel, chosen for wear resistance in workshop environments to preserve surface integrity and dimensional stability.

Is the component supplied as a set or individually?
The item is supplied individually; replacement or spare‑part management is therefore simplified for fixture maintenance.

How is this part identified for procurement and stock control?
The part is listed under SKU M323.042 and GTIN 4061905054280 for clear identification in procurement and inventory systems.
