Various embodiments are disclosed of dampening apparatus for a pressure gauge in which a short length of sleeve, ferrule, hub or thimble encircles a pointer shaft in a close but loose fit relation defining a clearances packed with a high viscosity dampening agent such that it serves to decelerate and cushion any sudden shock or pulsation force that would otherwise be transmitted from the pointer shaft to a pointer registering values of pressure of fluid pressure being monitored.
