12 mm Limit Gauge Pin With Wear Allowance, Hardened Steel, DIN 7162 - Filetta
Product information "12 mm Limit Gauge Pin With Wear Allowance, Hardened Steel, DIN 7162 - Filetta"
Take advantage of the combination of hardened steel construction, DIN 7162 conformity and a built‑in wear allowance on the go side for reliable go/no‑go checks and long service life. Order the limit gauge pin directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.
Limit gauge pin – 12 mm, hardened steel (Filetta)
The limit gauge pin is a hardened‑steel plug gauge designed for quick go/no‑go diameter checks and conformity inspection to DIN 7162 in workshop and inspection environments.
- Hardened steel construction
- Conforms to DIN 7162 for plug gauges
- 12 mm nominal diameter
- Wear allowance on the go side
Consistent inspection performance for production control
The limit gauge pin provides a compact, robust solution for repetitive acceptance checks where consistent tactile feedback and repeatability are required. Made from hardened steel, the pin resists deformation and preserves its tolerance band during frequent handling, so inspection intervals remain predictable. Conformity to DIN 7162 ensures compatibility with established go/no‑go inspection procedures, simplifying integration into existing quality checks and reducing stoppages caused by ambiguous results.
Durable design that minimises downtime
A hardened, ground construction and the specified wear allowance on the go side extend usable life and enable predictable replacement scheduling. The wear allowance is a deliberate oversize on the good (go) face that compensates for gradual surface loss without affecting the no‑go function; this reduces the risk of false passes and helps keep rework rates low. The simple geometry of a plug gauge also allows rapid manual handling and reduces the time required for routine dimension verification in production and assembly operations.
Practical fit for workshop and inspection use
Designed for straightforward go/no‑go diameter verification, the pin suits machining workshops, toolrooms and incoming inspection stations where quick, unambiguous checks are needed. The combination of a plain cylindrical form and DIN 7162 standardisation supports easy comparison across gauges and fixtures. Traceability is supported by the clear article designation (MS911.216) and concise specification, so the gauge can be referenced in inspection reports and procurement lists without ambiguity.

FAQ
What is the primary application of this gauge?
The Filetta limit gauge pin (MS911.216) is intended for quick go/no‑go checks of bore and shaft diameters according to DIN 7162 for production and inspection tasks.
How does the wear allowance affect use?
The built‑in wear allowance on the go side extends service life by compensating for surface wear, so the Filetta plug gauge maintains reliable go/no‑go performance over many cycles.
Is the material suitable for workshop handling?
Yes, the hardened steel construction of this gauge pin provides resistance to deformation and wear, making it suitable for regular workshop and inspection use.
Which standard does the gauge follow and why is that important?
Conformance to DIN 7162 ensures the plug gauge meets recognised geometric and dimensional criteria, simplifying its integration into standardised inspection procedures and documentation.
