Accusize Industrial Tools Minus Pin Gage Sets
Accusize Minus Pin Gage Sets
- Class ZZ
- Each gage is electro-etched with its actual size.
- Tolerance for minus set tolerance: +0.0000" / -0.0002"
- All gages are 2" long, center less lapped.
- Hardness: Each Accusize pin gage is heat treated to a hardness of 60-62 Rockwell C drill rod, providing the pin gages higher durability and quality.
- Finish: each gage has a 10 micro finish or better.
- In strong case.
Briefly introducing pin gage
Pin gages, also known as plug gages, manufactured with a specific size and durable materials, are used to test hole sizes, especially small holes and to verify the diameter of holes and slots. They are used to quickly determine whether hole sizes are within certain tolerance or not. Moreover, they’re used as test bars for geometric deviation measurement.
They're commonly used in combination with go/no-go pin gage handles to produce a "Go-No Go" gage that quickly qualifies a bored hole. Pins are especially useful for gaging the straightness of a relatively deep bore. The Accusize go/no-go pin gage handles can work with our pin gage sets to produce a “Go-No Go” gage. These handles can be purchased separately.
Features:
- Each pin gage set comes with a Certification of Performance.
- Class ZZ Tolerance
Measuring Small Holes with Pin Gauges
- Calipers are unreliable for measuring small holes; therefore, we need pin gages.
- Accusize pin gages range widely from 0.011" to 1.000". You can use them to measure a huge number of small holes.
Cautions when using pin gages:
- Prepare pin gage handles (Go/No Go handles).
- Clean the measurement surface with a benzine or a dry cloth.
- Wear gloves to prevent body temperature influencing the accuracy of the measurement. The temperature difference between your hands and pin gages may lead to an expansion of the pin gage.
- Remove dust and fingerprints. Then, apply anti-rust oil to save the tool life.
- Keep the pin gages in the environment with small humidity changes and temperature variations.
Calibrate Micrometers
- Pin gages are a good deal in common as calibration for micrometers and calipers.
- For example, you can use a 0.300” pin gage to verify the micrometer shooting for 0.300”.
Go/No Go Gage Handle
- You can purchase our Go/No Go pin gage handle separately, so that you can use it with our pin gages to produce Go/No gage.
- It will be ideal to check a workpiece against its allowed tolerance via go/no-go test
- Put the pin gage inside the Go/No Go pin gage handle. If it fits the Go side, it is within tolerance of the hole. If it fits the No-Go side, it is out of tolerance of the hole.
Measuring Groove
Verify the accuracy of a groove width of a work piece after processing by sliding the pin gage through the groove
Measurement between holes
You can use pin gages to measure the distance between holes. The formula is shown in the picture.
Change of packaging
- To meet the challenges of shipping in e-commerce, we’re continuously upgrading the outer packaging of our pin gage set, which were packed in fragile plastic cases and are then redesigned.
- Accusize pin gages are now packed in strong plastic cases and some of them are in reliable and beautiful aluminum cases.
- We keep upgrading the packaging. Some of the pin gage sets come with really solid cases and packaging. In the future, we will make it stronger and stronger.

This is a very nice set of pin gages! The pins are individually wrapped with a thin wax paper, probably to protect the pins from any type of corrosion until use, which leaves a film on the pin. You will need to clean off that stuff with some denatured alcohol, or the like.The case is a very sturdy molded plastic, with piano-style hinge, strong locking latches, and a vinyl seal to protect against moisture intrusion. The case will last a lifetime!This is the .250 to .500 set. Perfect for my needs!

Very good Tools to measure different calibers

Very nice set and dead on accurate.

I use this to check hole sizes in PCBs. The pins are good and accurate, but the box is red and does not say Accusize. I find it easier to just use the pins without the holder, but the holder can be used as a vice for small drill bits. Good value.

Pins came secured in an index box, individually rust proof wrapped, perfectly packaged. Pin form and finish exceeds expectations. Size and overall quality also exceed expectations. Perfect for home machinist. Size accuracy verified to the best of my ability and was accurate as marked.

Look fine haven’t used them yet I’m sure they’ll work fine

Been a machinist for 12 years, use pins everyday, people would borrow my pins or I'd lose them, decided to buy these to have a fresh new set. Ends of the pins aren't flat, they do have a bevel/break edge. I did grind them flat so I can check i.d. depths they are good pins. Coming from Vermont's, I'd say these are a good bang for the buck. I have a set of the small pin gages and the .061-.250 next ones will be the next set up. Well worth it.

I have purchased a number of tools from Accusize over the years both directly from their website and through Amazon, and have never been disappointed...this Gage Pin Set is no exception. The finish and tolerance of every pin in the set is dead accurate and the quality of the protective storage case is the best I've come across; superior even to all of my older American made sets. Outstanding quality instruments at an unbeatable price!

Arrived without the protective film or oil on any pins. Haven't inspected the pins for accuracy as of yet but they look new. Protective wrap missing and tape tells me that someone may have opened this then returned it.
