Limit plug gauge by Filetta — hardened steel, DIN 7162, Ø 12 mm, G7
Limit plug gauge designed for rapid acceptance checks of internal diameters in production and incoming‑goods inspection
- Hardened steel for durable measurement
- Conforms to DIN 7162 standard
- Wear allowance on the 'go' side
Reliable diameter assessment that speeds inspection throughput
The limit plug gauge serves as a straightforward go/no‑go check for cylindrical bores, offering rapid verification without complex setup. Machined to a nominal diameter of 12 mm with the designation G7, the pin provides an immediate pass/fail indication that reduces inspection time compared with full dimensional measuring chains. The hardened construction minimises deformation under repeated use, which keeps the checking routine stable and helps maintain production rhythm. For shop floors and control benches where speed and repeatability matter, the gauge translates metrological specification into a clear decision at the point of measurement.
Durable design that reduces replacement and downtime
Made from hardened steel, the gauge withstands frequent handling and contact with metal workpieces. A specific wear allowance on the good side compensates for gradual material loss, so the go end retains acceptance criteria longer and service intervals are extended. This pragmatic feature lowers life‑cycle costs by delaying the need for reworking or replacement and by keeping inspection standards consistent. The combination of robust material and wear management supports continuous operation in industrial environments where tools are subject to intensive use.
Simple integration into quality processes and documentation
Conforming to DIN 7162 assists traceability in formal inspection plans and quality records. The plug gauge is suitable for routine acceptance checks in production, final inspection and incoming goods control where clear binary results are preferred. The concise form factor and unambiguous results streamline operator training and reduce human decision variance, which improves overall process capability. When used as part of a calibrated inspection set, the gauge helps to demonstrate compliance and to maintain documented control over critical bore dimensions.
Practical benefits for workshop and production use
This gauge simplifies everyday metrology: no complex calibration rigs are required for routine use, and the hard wearing surface minimises surface damage to both gauge and workpiece. The compact geometry facilitates access to bores in assemblies and jigged components, while the standardised dimensioning and tolerance marking enable easy cross‑referencing with drawing specifications. For manufacturing teams seeking dependable, low‑effort tools for Go/No‑Go inspection, the pin combines industrial robustness with clear operational benefits.

FAQ
What size bore is this gauge intended to check?
The gauge is supplied as a 12 mm nominal limit plug gauge and is intended for quick go/no‑go checks of bores matching that nominal diameter.
Is the gauge suitable for production use on a shop floor?
Yes, the hardened‑steel construction and the wear allowance on the good side make the gauge robust enough for routine production and incoming‑goods inspection.
How does the G7 designation influence measurement results?
G7 is the designation provided with the article and identifies the tolerance fit intended for interpretation against corresponding drawing tolerances when using the plug gauge.
Does the gauge comply with industry standards?
The item is produced to conform with DIN 7162, facilitating inclusion in standard inspection procedures and documentation.
