What IGaging does

iGAGING is a privately held precision measuring instruments company headquartered in San Clemente, California, that designs, sources, and distributes a broad portfolio of dimensional and geometric measurement tools under its "Enjoy Accuracy®" brand mark. Its catalog spans digital and mechanical calipers, micrometers, dial and digital indicators, height gauges, bore gauges, depth and thickness gauges, hardness testers (Shore A/D durometers), protractors and angle cubes, squares, steel rules, straight edges, and gage blocks, with many instruments offered in IP54, IP65, and IP67 environmental-protection variants for shop-floor conditions. The product line incorporates proprietary absolute-encoding technology (which retains zero origin across power cycles), Bluetooth and USB wireless data output for Statistical Process Control (SPC), and NIST-traceable calibration on gage blocks meeting ASME B89.1.9-2002 and DIN 875-1 / DIN 00 specifications, with resolutions down to 0.00002 inches on digital micro indicators.

The company serves professional machinists, CNC operators, manufacturing quality-control engineers, woodworkers, automotive technicians, and DRO/machining-center operators across North America and international markets. Its go-to-market is channel-first: iGAGING sells through an authorized distributor network with an active "Become a Distributor" onboarding program and through its own e-commerce storefront at igaging.com, supported by an annual master catalog (currently version 2026 v3.0) and social media presence on Facebook and Instagram. Revenue is generated primarily through unit-priced hardware sales across multiple precision tiers, from entry-level shop tools to ultra-precision engineering instruments. No revenue, headcount, funding, or ownership information is publicly disclosed; leadership team details are not published on the company website.
