Plug gage masters check bores and air plugs. Each member is lapped to size; GO members carry plus tolerance and NO GO members minus. The size decides the style, or you can name the one you want.

How to order
PGM – class – material – size. Class XX or X, material S (steel) or C (chrome). Add -DEH for a double-end handle and -MM for metric sizes. Example: PGM-XX-S-.7500.
Certification
Every master ships with a long-form certificate of calibration showing the actual measured size, traceable to NIST. Calibration is done in a temperature-controlled lab conforming to ISO/IEC 17025 and ANSI/NCSL Z540-1.
How many masters?
Dual Master air gaging takes two masters, one at each end of the tolerance. Single Master takes one, at nominal. For best results with a single master, pick a size near the middle of the part tolerance.
