About Depth Gages

Depth gages are used to measure the depth of holes, cavities, and other component features. They are available in various configurations, depending on the specific application. Depth gage categories include dial depth gages, digital depth gages, depth micrometers, thread depth gages, flush-pin gages, depth rules, combination depth angle gages, and Vernier depth gages. 


Products & Services Related to Depth Gages
Bore and ID Gages
Bore and ID gages are designed for internal diameter dimensional measurement or assessment.
Calipers
Calipers typically use a precise slide movement for inside, outside, depth or step measurements. Some caliper types are used for comparing or transferring dimensions.
Gage Blocks
Gage blocks are manufactured to precise gagemaker tolerance grades for calibrating, checking, and setting fixed and comparative gages.
Height Gages
Height gages are used for measuring the height of components or product features.
Indicators and Comparators
Indicators and comparators measure where the linear movement of a precision spindle or probe is amplified.
Micrometers
Micrometers are instruments for precision dimensional gaging consisting of a ground spindle and anvil mounted in a C-shaped steel frame.  Noncontact laser micrometers are also available.
Snap Gages
Snap gages are used in production settings where specific diametrical or thickness measurements must be repeated frequently with precision and accuracy.
