#9053 12-Point GO-NOGO Gage
The #9053 12-Point GO-NOGO Gage is a precision manufacturing inspection tool designed to verify internal multipoint recess geometry and functional driver fit in 12-point socket profile head screws.
Manufactured in accordance with DIN 34824 and VW 01043 standards, the 9053 Series provides rapid production verification of recess size and form using functional GO and NO-GO ends.
This gage confirms:
• Acceptable 12-point recess size• Proper driver fit condition• Manufacturing tolerance compliance• Production line quality control
The GO end verifies minimum functional engagement.The NO-GO end confirms the recess does not exceed maximum allowable limits.
Designed for high-volume manufacturing environments, the 9053 Series provides fast, repeatable inspection without requiring indicator measurement equipment.
Ideal for:
• Automotive fastener manufacturing• European OEM programs• Multipoint socket production• ISO-certified quality systems• In-process production control
Each gage is heat treated, thermally stabilized, and calibrated to specified dimensions and tolerances. All gages are traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
The 9053 Series delivers dependable, production-ready 12-point recess verification.

2) Inspection Function
The 9053 Series provides functional size verification:
GO End• Confirms minimum acceptable recess size• Ensures driver engagement capability
NO-GO End• Confirms recess does not exceed maximum tolerance• Prevents oversize condition
This gage verifies size and form compliance, not penetration depth.
3) Materials & Construction
Universal’s 9053 Series gages feature:
• Hardened precision ground 12-point plug ends• Thermally stabilized tool steel• Surface-treated wear-resistant finish• Clearly marked GO and NO-GO ends• Production-durable design
Designed for repeated use in high-volume manufacturing environments.
4) Ordering Information
When ordering, specify:
• Drive size (M4 – M18)• Applicable standard (DIN or VW)• Certification package if required
All gage probes are calibrated to specified dimensions and tolerances and are traceable to NIST standards.
