Product Overview
The #1291 TXP Tamper Resistant GO Penetration Gage is designed for production and receiving inspection of internal Extra (TXP) tamper resistant recess screws where minimum acceptable recess form and proper driver engagement must be verified with confidence.
In practical use, GO penetration gaging helps confirm that the recess will properly accept the intended tamper resistant driver and that the form has not fallen below the minimum acceptable condition. This makes the gage especially valuable for security fasteners used in tightly controlled manufacturing and quality environments.
Universal Punch manufactures these gages for precision inspection programs where repeatability, dimensional stability, and long wear life are critical.
