150mm Vernier Caliper /Calliper (Resolution Vernier scale)
Each sale is for one vernier caliper made of durable and very lightweight material
SPECIAL FEATURES:
0.05mm Resolution Vernier Scale This caliper model includes a vernier scale; this makes it possible to directly obtain a more precise measurement to 0.05mm (0.005cm)
Internal + External + Measurements This caliper model includes Inner and outer jaws for measuring Exterior distances and interior holes as well as a depth probe to measure depth (eg; of water in a jar)
Ultra Lightweight Tired of lugging unnecessary weight around? Modern plastics allows relative similar thermal co-efficients without significant loss of accuracy.
The result is this lightweight vernier caliper.
Most vernier calipers are constructed of metal, which may usually be unnecessary if you don't need the durability or don't require accuracies below 0.005cm.
Accurate Unlike expensive digital calipers which wear out and lose their touch after a while, this caliper is accurate enough for school and educational providers and general home technicians.
Why? temperature does affect the accuracy of all vernier calipers, even the more expensive metal ones (metal expands when heated, remember?).
However, if you need any significant improvement in accuracy, you will need a device which calibrates the vernier caliper based on the device temperature (due to thermal expansion of materials at various temperatures, especially some forms of metal.
The accuracy of most vernier calipers is affected by the environment/temperature they are calibrated at and the temperature you are using it in.
Therefore, the difference between this plastic vernier caliper and an metal based caliper is not that different apart from durability.
Great value for home DIY technicians, students and teachers.
These vernier calipers are highly affordable and in the cost range of most students and teachers and provide excellent value for money.
General Product Information
A caliper (known in british english as a "calliper") is a measurement device used to measure the relative distance between two opposing sides/points.
Calipers are used in many fields such as metalworking, mechanical engineering, gunsmithing, handloading, woodworking, woodturning and even in medicine (specialised calipers are needed for medical use).
Calipers with a Vernier scale for ultra precise resolution measurements are known as "Vernier Calipers", which is the type of caliper in this auction.
This vernier caliper uses both Inches and Metric (cm / mm) scales.
