Limit plug gauge G7 — 3.5 mm, hardened steel (Filetta)
Limit plug gauge G7 is a hardened-steel go/no-go gauge designed for rapid acceptance checks of small bores in production and quality control.
- Hardened steel construction
- Complies with DIN 7162 standard
- Wear allowance on the Go side
- Diameter 3.5 mm precision
Reliable checks for small bores
The limit plug gauge is intended for fast, unequivocal go/no-go inspections in the workshop and at in‑process control stations. Manufactured to DIN 7162, the tool offers standardised dimensions for consistent interchangeability across gauges and fixtures. With a nominal diameter of 3.5 mm, the gauge pin provides a compact solution for verifying small internal diameters without the need for complex measuring setups, enabling straightforward acceptance decisions and reducing inspection time.
Designed to maintain accuracy and lifetime
Constructed from hardened steel, the gauge resists wear and mechanical damage during repetitive use, which secures measurement stability over many cycles. The specified wear allowance on the Go side compensates for gradual material loss at the contact zone: this means the initial pass/fail boundary is conservatively set so that the Go end remains reliable as the gauge accumulates wear, thereby extending the service life and reducing replacement frequency. Such design reduces process interruptions and supports predictable maintenance planning.
Practical integration into production and inspection routines
As a dedicated measuring pin, the device integrates easily into gauge sets, test benches and handheld Go/No‑Go routines; the compact geometry allows quick handling and minimal fixturing. The simple acceptance logic of a limit plug gauge shortens operator training and accelerates throughput in inspection loops, delivering measurable time savings. For specific application scenarios or assistance with fixture compatibility, Metav’s technical advisers can provide pragmatic recommendations tailored to production needs.

FAQ
What is the primary purpose of this limit plug gauge?
The Filetta limit plug gauge G7 (MS911.163) is used for quick go/no-go inspections of small internal diameters to support fast acceptance decisions in production and quality control.
Which standard does the gauge comply with?
The gauge is manufactured to DIN 7162, ensuring standardised dimensions and compatibility with conventional metrology practices.
What material is the gauge made from and why is that important?
This limit plug gauge is made of hardened steel, which improves wear resistance and maintains functional tolerances during repetitive use.
What does "wear allowance on the Go side" mean in practice?
The wear allowance on the Go side means the Go end is dimensioned to allow a controlled amount of wear before it affects pass/fail decisions, extending the gauge’s usable life while preserving inspection reliability.
Can this gauge be used on a shop floor for routine checks?
Yes, the compact 3.5 mm gauge pin is suitable for routine shop‑floor Go/No‑Go checks and can be incorporated into simple test fixtures or handheld inspection procedures.
