The #9000 Type 1 Penetration Gage is a precision inspection tool designed to measure driver penetration depth in Phillips Type I and Type Z cross recess head screws.

Manufactured in compliance with ANSI B107.600 and ASME B18.6.4 / B18.6.5M standards, the 9000 Series verifies the depth of driver penetration into cross recess screws to ensure proper recess geometry and functional engagement.

This gage measures how far a standardized cross driver profile penetrates into the screw recess under controlled conditions.

The 9000 Series is designed for:

• Phillips Type I screws

• Phillips Type Z screws

• Cross recess machine screws

• International production programs

Available recess sizes:

9000-00 – Size 0

9000-01 – Size 1

9000-02 – Size 2

9000-03 – Size 3

9000-04 – Size 4

The system ensures:

• Correct penetration depth

• Proper recess formation

• Reduced cam-out risk

• Compliance with referenced standards

The gage utilizes a hardened precision ground driver-style probe with a dial indicator assembly to provide quantitative penetration measurement.

SPC-compatible digital indicators are available upon request.

All probes are heat treated, thermally stabilized, and surface treated to provide additional wear resistance and extended service life.

Long form calibration certificates provide traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST.

The 9000 Series delivers repeatable, production-ready cross recess penetration verification.


  • 1) Standard Compliance

    ANSI B107.600

    ASME B18.6.4

    ASME B18.6.5M

    International References: ISO, JIS, DIN, IFI, BS, GB

    Drive Type: Phillips Type I and Type Z Cross RecessInspection Type: Penetration Depth MeasurementCalibration: NIST Traceable

    2) Inspection Function

    The 9000 Series measures:

    • Driver penetration depth

    • Cross recess geometry consistency

    • Compliance with penetration specifications

    • Functional driver engagement characteristics

    This gage provides quantitative penetration measurement and is not a GO-NOGO device.

    Dial indicator readings provide measurable penetration depth values for quality documentation and SPC programs.

    3) Materials & Construction

    Universal’s 9000 Series gages feature:

    • Hardened precision ground cross driver probe

    • Thermally stabilized alloy steel

    • Surface treated wear-resistant finish

    • Knurled handle body

    • High accuracy dial indicator

    • SPC digital option available

    Designed for high-volume production and laboratory inspection environments.

    4) Calibration & Traceability

    All gages include:

    • Calibration to specified dimensional tolerances

    • Long form calibration certificates available

    • Traceability to NIST

    Digital indicator versions support statistical process control integration.

    5) Ordering Information

    When ordering, specify:

    • Recess size• Inch or metric indicator• Dial or digital measurement system
