Descripción
A Vernier Caliper Stainless Steel for 0-150mm Analog is a precision measuring instrument used for measuring the internal, external, and depth dimensions of objects. The analog version uses a sliding scale to provide measurements in millimeters (mm) or inches, making it a versatile tool for a variety of applications in mechanics, engineering, metalworking, woodworking, and other precision-based fields.
Key Features of the Vernier Calipers Stainless Steel 0-150mm Analog:
-
Measuring Range:
-
The 0-150mm range means the caliper can measure objects with lengths from 0 mm to 150 mm (or approximately 6 inches). This is a standard range for general-purpose measuring.
-
-
Material:
-
The stainless steel construction ensures that the calipers are durable, resistant to rust and corrosion, and can withstand harsh working environments.
-
-
Analog Display:
-
The analog scale is composed of a main scale and a Vernier scale. The main scale is used to measure whole millimeters, while the Vernier scale provides fractional measurements, typically in 0.02mm or 0.05mm increments, depending on the design.
-
This allows for very precise measurements, typically accurate to 0.02mm or 0.05mm.
-
-
External and Internal Measurements:
-
The calipers can be used for measuring both the external dimensions (e.g., outer diameter of an object) and internal dimensions (e.g., inner diameter of a tube or hole).
-
Depth measuring: The caliper often has a small rod or blade extending from the end of the caliper, allowing it to measure the depth of holes, recesses, or grooves.
-
-
Precise Calibration:
-
The analog Vernier caliper requires a little more practice compared to digital ones, but it can be highly accurate when used correctly, offering measurements as precise as 0.02mm.
-
-
Non-digital / Mechanical:
-
Unlike digital calipers, this mechanical design does not require batteries, making it convenient for use in environments where electronics may not be ideal or where the user prefers non-digital tools.
-
-
Clear, Easy-to-Read Scale:
-
The graduated scale is marked clearly for easy reading of measurements. Typically, Vernier calipers have a main scale that is marked in millimeters (mm) and a Vernier scale that gives the fractional readings for better precision.
-
-
Durability:
-
Made of high-quality stainless steel, the calipers are designed to withstand heavy use and remain accurate for a long period. They are also resistant to wear and tear, making them perfect for industrial or laboratory environments.
-
How to Read Analog Vernier Calipers:
Reading an analog Vernier caliper involves two steps:
-
Read the main scale: The main scale shows the number of millimeters (or inches) on the left side. This is usually the largest number you see.
-
Read the Vernier scale: The Vernier scale is a smaller scale that slides along the main scale. The number on the Vernier scale that aligns with the main scale gives you the fractional measurement (usually in 0.02mm or 0.05mm increments).
