Limit plug gauge – Filetta, hardened steel, DIN 7162
The Limit plug gauge is a precision go/no-go inspection pin designed for fast dimensional checks of bores and fittings in production and quality control.
- Hardened steel construction
- Manufactured to DIN 7162
- Wear allowance on the good side
Reliable pass/fail checking for fast quality control
A compact limit plug gauge provides a straightforward binary decision in inspection routines, turning measurement into an immediate pass or fail. The combination of DIN 7162 conformity and a hardened shaft ensures that the gauge meets recognised geometric and tolerance requirements, which reduces interpretation time in quality control and accelerates throughput on the shop floor. This approach lowers downtime created by uncertain measurements and supports reproducible, traceable inspection results.
Built for longevity and repeatable results
Constructed from hardened steel, the pin resists abrasion and maintains a stable measuring diameter over many cycles, so calibration intervals can be extended without compromising confidence. The included wear allowance on the good side compensates for normal surface degradation, preserving the functional limit for go checks and reducing the need for immediate replacement. For maintenance planning this translates into predictable lifecycle costs and less frequent tool changeovers.
Easy integration into workshop inspection processes
Compliance with DIN 7162 means the gauge integrates cleanly into existing inspection plans and can be referenced in control documentation and reports. The simple geometry and compact design facilitate handheld use or fixture mounting, enabling quick comparison checks during in-process inspection or final quality control. The instrument functions as an efficient screening tool before more detailed metrology is applied, saving time while keeping measurement risk low.
Suited applications and practical advantages
Ideal for routine bore verification and acceptance testing, the gauge is suited to mechanical engineering, component assembly and finishing operations where fast, reproducible decisions are required. The small footprint of the pin makes it convenient in tight work stations and on assembly lines, while the robust material and standardised manufacture support long-term reliability. Where quick verification is needed, the plug gauge acts as a dependable first check.

FAQ
What is the primary purpose of this limit plug gauge?
The limit plug gauge is intended for quick pass/fail verification of bore diameters and mating features during production and final inspection.
Which material is used for the gauge?
The Filetta limit plug gauge is made from hardened steel to ensure wear resistance and dimensional stability.
Does the gauge comply with any standards?
Yes, the gauge is manufactured in accordance with DIN 7162, ensuring standardised geometry and tolerance handling.
What size does this article cover?
This item is specified with a size of 4 mm and is listed under article number MS911.206.
How does the wear allowance affect inspection?
The built-in wear allowance on the good side maintains the effective go condition as the surface experiences normal abrasion, thus extending service life while preserving reliable go/no-go decisions.
