Linear Gages
Quick Answer
A linear gage is a high-precision electronic measuring instrument that uses a spring-loaded probe to measure small linear displacements, dimensions, and deviations with resolution down to 0.00001″ (0.0001mm). Linear gages are used in dedicated gaging fixtures, bench comparators, and automated inspection stations where the speed, repeatability, and data output capability of a contact probe gage is required.
Higher Precision stocks linear gages from Mitutoyo, Mahr, and Heidenhain — linear probes, linear gage heads, amplifiers, and display units for bench comparator gaging, in-process measurement, and custom fixture integration in manufacturing, quality control, and metrology lab applications.
