DIATEST Measuring Insert 0.8 mm Bore Diameter, 0.01 mm Graduation, 30 mm Depth, K-Series

In a precision engineering workshop, a metrology technician faces the challenge of inspecting a bore diameter of just 0.8 mm in a medical device component. The DIATEST measuring insert, part of the K-Series, is the tool of choice for this critical task. This mechanical comparative insert is engineered to work seamlessly with DIATEST bore gauge systems and split-ball probes, delivering reliable measurements in the sub-millimeter range where accuracy is paramount.

Why choose it

The DIATEST measuring insert delivers reliable and repeatable measurements in the sub-millimeter range, where accuracy is critical. Its hardened steel contact points and high-grade tool steel body ensure durability and long service life, even in demanding industrial environments. The threaded connection allows quick and secure mounting to DIATEST probe handles, and the insert is fully interchangeable within the K-Series, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance.

Ideal use cases

• Precision internal diameter measurement in aerospace components
• Quality control of small bores in medical device manufacturing
• Bore gauging in metrology laboratories for calibration and inspection

Good to know

For accurate measurements, this insert should be used with master setting rings for calibration. It is a mechanical comparative device, meaning it requires an external indicator with 0.01 mm graduation to display measurements. The insert is not a standalone gauge but an essential component of the DIATEST bore gauge system.
