This Master Vernier Height Gage is a rugged and reliable tool that gives precise and dependable measurements over long ranges. This tool is accurate, has the easiest reading vernier style and is stronger than other height gages.
Readability Features* Long, 50-division vernier scales. This feature permits just half as many bar graduations as conventional single vernier tools. These widely spaced graduations make possible easy reading to .001" or 0.02mm without needing a magnifying glass
* Flush fitting of the vernier scales to the main scale means that these are in the same plane, which eliminates parallax. Vernier scales are adjustable Black lines and figures against satin chrome finish make reading a pleasure, not an effort
* The scriber and base are designed for direct reading from zero (bottom of base)
* Extremely fine adjustments are achieved by a knob located on the base, thereby isolating the column and slide from external pressures
* Additional remote fine adjustment located on top of the bar convenient feature when working in higher ranges
* Special master bar design and the balanced design and weight of the base eliminates vibration especially helpful with fully extended scribers
* Master bars are hardened and stabilized
* Base is hardened, ground, and lapped square with the bar and has finger grooves to provide ease of movement
* The vertical bar is positioned near the center of the base for balance and stability
* Versatile tool will scribe lines, mount dial indicators or electronic probes, and accept depth attachments
