Placentia’s own accredited metrology lab

American Gage has operated in north Orange County since 1968 and calls Placentia home — nine discipline-specific, environmentally controlled laboratories accredited to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 by A2LA (certificate 4296.01). For Placentia businesses, that means accredited calibration with zero shipping: drop instruments off on your way in, pick them up on the way home.

Local shops use us for the full range — dimensional hand tools, electrical test equipment, pressure gauges, torque wrenches, scales and balances — plus repairs, with parts stocked for major brands like Mitutoyo and Starrett.
