What is gauge pins?

Gauge pins, also known as pin gauges or plug gauges, are precision-ground cylindrical rods used for verifying hole sizes, measuring distances between holes, and inspecting the location of holes relative to other features. They are manufactured to very tight tolerances and are available in a wide range of sizes. Gauge pins are commonly used in manufacturing, quality control, and metrology applications to ensure the accuracy and consistency of machined parts. They are often sold in sets that increment in small steps, allowing for precise measurement.
