Alright tool junkies can use your help wanted to bounce this off yall . I received this gauge from a friend who wants me to sell it on e bay for him. I dont like misunderstanding and wouldn't want to sell something without properly listing it . ( guess cuz i dont get it yet)
Its a Brencor Inc (Dyer Company) Dial Hole Check Gage Model 500-010. I looked on the website and found no such detailed instructions. As you see it does have instructions however something I dunno why I dont get YET.. Like duh! Help me see this please prob real simple too... Lol
It seems to have One inch travel yet the increments show otherwise (.010) Maybe its just me but how do you measure with this gauge .? Is it meant to use only with a a bore gauge set to proper diam. Reading in positive direction? And how does that correspond with divisions and travel?
The prob i have is a bit of a stumbling block here . Any one like to help me get the picture . Please have a look at divisions in pic they are .010 div yet it seems like it is .100 travel . ??
TIA for any confirmation .
All dial bore gauges I've used are set with a ring gauge. This one appears to have the gauge built in, which is why they say to set it by pressing against a flat surface. What does the probe look like?

I posted on another forum and folks were mentioning taper tip and so. on. I don't think so as this is cut and dry its fixed no taper ... here was my reply to all QW's asked still no resolve
lol im laughing not bc of what said but still don't get it..lol the tip is original as I know it was unused it came from a co worker who ordered it .. its brand new never used. and the tip is not tapered nor comes off. lol.. now again lets look at travel and the increments as in how it corresponds ..im sorry visual thinker not to audible .. gota see it in action.
btw I did a search to me it looks like it will mount in any .375 style collar clamp. and the ones which had any tube sleeve ( some asked said may be missing ) were ones which measured in larger travel
Note : It has one full inch of travel yet has .001 divisions yet goes from .030- .120 ?
ok I verified my hunch and put b/t caliper and can concur .001 on gage = .010 in actual so the entire travel would be 1 full inch with 10 divisions on dial as seen . Ok so ya multiply # x 10 still don't get how its set up . My guess its for pre fix checking depth against one another.
anyone want to go there ? I mean I have used many depth gauges all bore gauges but they were all cut and dry ...
iff I didn't have one bad apple ebay buyer id just sell as is but I want to list it correct with NO PROBLEM lol.. also im a why guy like most of you folks .. so I want an answer to how this works..lol...
I'm not an expert on hole gages but I think there is a bit missing?

I'm looking at some of these on gaging.com. The plungers are tapered from very slightly to more pronounced depending on it's range. When you put it into the hole to me measured the tapered pin only goes in so far but you keep going until the cylinder that the plunger comes out of hits the body of the part with the hole. Then read the gage.
Take a micrometer and measure the diameter at both ends of the plunger. That will be the range it measures.
I got it... THANKS
yea I see now I did some searching looks to be missing a sleeve .. I may try to purchase the sleeve but not sure if it will be worth the investment for the sale. I don't like selling things incomplete either ..Nice Gauge tho .
just acquired the spec sheet from Dyer ..nice gauge its is accurate w/ in .0005
anyone interested let me know before I ebay it. thanks again for all your comments..
Ps vinny its not tapered not meant to measure that way u can tho with dif tips its an accurate hole gauge depth gauge thanks for ya 2cents tho Cheers mate
