Depth Gauge M204.043 — 500 mm stainless steel, 0.02 mm vernier (Metav IndustryLine)

The Depth Gauge M204.043 is a precision analogue depth gauge designed for medium-range measurement tasks in machine shops, jig and fixture assembly, and mould making. It combines a long measuring span with a fine 0.02 mm vernier for precise depth determination under demanding workshop conditions.

• Stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Vernier resolution 0.02 mm (1/50 mm)
• Locking screw for repeatable depth measurements

Precise medium-range measurement that fits the workshop

This instrument offers a 0–500 mm measuring range classified as a medium‑range tool, which balances reach and rigidity for everyday tasks. Conforming to DIN 862, the analogue vernier with 0.02 mm graduation belongs to the highest mechanical precision class for nonius gauges, making it suitable where reliable, repeatable depth readings are required without the complexity of electronic systems. The long span supports measurements on larger components while remaining manageable for single‑person operation.

Durable design for reproducible results

Constructed from stainless steel with a matt‑chrome scale and vernier, the gauge resists workshop corrosion and keeps graduations readable over time. A dedicated locking screw secures the slider to prevent drift during transfer of measurements, improving reproducibility in repetitive inspection routines. The instrument is supplied in a protective transport case to reduce handling damage during storage and transit, supporting a dependable service life in industrial environments.

Practical integration into quality routines

The analogue reading principle eliminates battery dependency and simplifies routine checks on the shop floor, while the vernier resolution of 0.02 mm provides the fineness needed for precision assemblies. For quality control, the gauge is a cost‑effective, low‑maintenance option that integrates easily into inspection benches and toolrooms. The clear mechanical scale and robust construction make it a pragmatic choice for daily use in production, maintenance and inspection tasks.

Handling, reading and care made straightforward

Reading the nonius requires aligning the vernier markings with the main scale; this method provides a reliable sub‑division down to 0.02 mm without electronics. Routine care involves keeping the measuring surfaces clean and lightly oiled, and protecting the scale from hard impacts. The solid build and matt‑chrome finish reduce glare and support fast, accurate readings in varied lighting. For specific applications or measurement tips, the Metav team can advise on best practice and complementary tools.
