Caliper Gimex analog 150 mm measuring tool 0.05 mm (201.018)

Caliper Gimex analog 150 mm measuring tool 0.05 mm (201.018) is a mechanical vernier caliper designed for accurate linear measurements up to 150 mm. The instrument performs external, internal and depth measurements with a 0.05 mm resolution using a finely graduated vernier scale. As a handheld, battery-free tool, it is suitable for basic inspection and workshop tasks where straightforward, repeatable measurements are required.

Advantages

The Gimex analog caliper offers a compact, robust construction and a vernier scale that enables fine reading without electronic components. Its mechanical design ensures long-term operation without power, and the hardened measuring jaws provide reliable contact for external and internal dimensions. The 150 mm range covers common workshop and hobby needs while keeping the instrument light and easy to handle.

Suitable for

• General workshop measurements of parts and components
• Hobby and model-making measurement tasks
• Basic inspection and quality checks in small-scale production
• Measuring internal diameters, external widths and depths

Key specifications

• Measuring range: 0–150 mm
• Resolution: 0.05 mm (vernier scale)
• Measurement types: external, internal and depth
• Construction: mechanical vernier caliper, handheld
• Material: hardened measuring jaws and corrosion-resistant body (as typical for workshop calipers)
• Power: none required (manual operation)

How to use

To measure an external dimension, close the jaws on the workpiece and read the main scale together with the vernier scale to obtain the 0.05 mm resolution value. For internal measurements, use the smaller jaws at the top of the caliper and expand them until they contact the inner surfaces, then read the scales. For depth measurement, extend the depth rod into the feature and read the combined scale value. Always ensure the caliper is clean and the jaws are aligned before taking a reading, and zero the scale at the closed position if needed.

Usage recommendations

Store the caliper in a protective case and avoid exposing it to heavy impacts, excessive moisture or corrosive environments. Periodically clean the measuring surfaces with a lint-free cloth and light oil to maintain accuracy. For repeatable results, measure at consistent contact pressure and re-check zero before critical measurements.
