About the PCA-116 Series - Gage Heads

The PCA-116 Series gage heads were developed to serve less demanding applications, where the balance between price and performance is paramount. Incorporating a standard LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer), low friction nylon sleeve bearings and an externally spring loaded shaft, the PCA-166 affords the most cost effective gaging solution available. Other features include industry standard outer diameter for easy installation, and a replaceable hardened tool steel contact tip using the 4-48 UNF-2 threads.

Applications for PCA-116 Series

  • Less demanding applications where cost effective performance is paramount
  • Honing machines
  • Factory automation in mild environments
  • Elevator ride controls
