A Vernier Caliper is a precision measuring instrument used to measure internal, external, and depth dimensions with high accuracy. It consists of a main scale and a Vernier scale, allowing for precise readings.
Key Features:
✔ Measurement Range: Typically 0-150 mm (6"), 0-200 mm (8"), or 0-300 mm (12") ✔ Accuracy: Up to 0.02 mm (0.001") ✔ Material: Stainless steel or hardened alloy for durability ✔ Locking Screw: Secures the measurement for accuracy ✔ Jaw Design: Includes external, internal, and depth measuring jaws ✔ Scale Types: Available in Metric (mm), Imperial (inch), or both
Types of Vernier Calipers:
🔹 Standard Vernier Caliper: Dual-scale for manual reading 🔹 Digital Vernier Caliper: Features an LCD display for easy reading 🔹 Dial Vernier Caliper: Uses a dial indicator instead of a Vernier scale 🔹 Depth Vernier Caliper: Specially designed for depth measurements
Measurement Functions:
📏 Outside Diameter (OD): Measure the external dimensions of an object 📏 Inside Diameter (ID): Measure the internal dimensions of holes and slots 📏 Depth Measurement: Measure depths of cavities, holes, and steps 📏 Step Measurement: Measure the height difference between surfaces
