18.8mm Gauge Pin, Length 50mm Workshop Version, Special Steel - Metav IndustryLine

Take advantage of the combination of high repeatability, compact dimensions (Ø18.8 mm, 50 mm length) and workshop-ready construction for reliable end‑measure inspections; order directly via Metav Werkzeuge or consult our specialists for application advice.

Gauge pin, single – Ø18.8 mm, 50 mm length (Metav IndustryLine)

A gauge pin designed for precise end‑measure checking and tight‑fit verification in workshop metrology applications.

• Diameter Ø18.8 mm for tight‑tolerance checks
• Length 50 mm workshop version
• Manufactured from special steel for wear resistance
• High precision: ±0.002 mm tolerance

Consistent fit and repeatable measurement results

The compact cylindrical design guarantees a consistent contact surface for end‑measurements and fit checks. With a nominal diameter of Ø18.8 mm and a verified run of ±0.002 mm, the pin reduces measurement scatter and supports reliable go/no‑go assessments. The dimension tolerance indicated refers to the dimensional variation after production; in practical terms this means fewer rechecks and faster decision making on the shop floor. For routine control tasks, the pin acts as a stable reference element where repeatability and small geometric deviation are decisive.

Built for everyday workshop handling and durability

Constructed from special steel, the pin withstands frequent insertion and removal in jigs and fixtures while preserving the measuring face. The 50 mm length offers enough engagement for secure seating without adding unnecessary overhang, making it practical for maintenance benches and measuring rigs. The workshop specification highlights a tool hardened for repeated use; the form stability ensures contact accuracy over many cycles, which lowers process interruptions and extends service intervals compared with softer counterparts.

Practical integration into inspection and assembly processes

The straightforward geometry enables quick incorporation into measurement routines, assembly verifications and fixture checks. The pin’s simple form factor allows it to be used as a gauge element, a locating dowel in short‑run fixtures or as a master plug for bore checking. Because the component is single and individually supplied, it suits both replacement needs and bespoke setups where a specific diameter and length are required. Where traceable documentation is necessary, the SKU and product labelling support inventory and quality records.

FAQ

What materials is this gauge pin suitable for when used as a locating or checking element?
The gauge pin is made from special steel and is suitable for common workshop applications where steel locating and fit‑checking are required; selection for specific materials depends on the fixture and environment.

How precise is the diameter and what does the stated tolerance mean for measurement work?
The diameter is 18.8 mm with a production tolerance of ±0.002 mm, which indicates the maximum expected dimensional deviation and supports consistent pass/fail verification in production checks.

Can the pin be used as a replacement in existing fixtures?
Yes, the single‑piece gauge pin is intended for direct replacement or integration into short‑run fixtures and jigs where the Ø18.8 mm / 50 mm specification matches the design.

Is the product traceable for quality records and stock keeping?
The item is supplied with identifying data such as SKU: M323.I80 and GTIN 4061905449871, facilitating inventory control and documentation for inspection routines.

What distinguishes the workshop execution from precision laboratory pins?
The workshop execution prioritises durability and practical handling for frequent use; while maintaining high dimensional accuracy, it is optimised for robustness in everyday production rather than ultra‑fine laboratory tasks.
