Telescoping Gage - Self-Centering H-D 3-1/2 to 6In - Central Tools

The Central Tools 4354 Telescoping Gage is a heavy-duty, self-centering instrument designed for professional technicians and machinists requiring precise measurement of internal dimensions. This robust gage accurately measures bores, slots, grooves, and recesses from 3-1/2 to 6 inches, making it an essential tool for automotive, heavy equipment, and industrial applications. It is engineered for consistent performance and durability in demanding workshop environments.

Key Features

• Self-Centering Mechanism: Ensures accurate and repeatable measurements of internal diameters by automatically centering within the bore.
• Heavy-Duty Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of daily professional use, offering extended tool life and reliability.
• Satin Chrome Finish: Provides excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, maintaining the tool's appearance and functionality over time.
• Single-Knob Operation: Both contacts are easily released or locked into position by turning a single knob at the end of the handle, simplifying operation.
• Precision Measurement: Designed to be used in conjunction with a micrometer (sold separately) for obtaining highly accurate final readings.
• Wide Measurement Range: Capable of measuring internal dimensions from 3-1/2 to 6 inches, covering a broad spectrum of applications.

Applications

This telescoping gage is indispensable for various precision measurement tasks. It is ideal for checking bore wear and taper in engine cylinders, ensuring proper clearances during engine rebuilding and maintenance. Mechanics can utilize it to measure the inside diameter of housings, transmission components, and differential casings. In industrial settings, it excels at assessing the dimensions of internal grooves, slots, and recesses in machinery parts, contributing to accurate machining and assembly processes.
