Height gauge M206.044.2 — 1,000 mm analogue height gauge with carbide scribing tip (Metav IndustryLine)

Height gauge M206.044.2 is a heavy-duty analogue layout instrument designed for marking and measuring up to 1,000 mm, combining a magnifying reader and a micrometric fine feed for controlled, repeatable results

• Fine micrometric adjustment
• Carbide scribing tip for durability
• 1,000 mm large-range capacity
• Matt-chrome vernier and scale

Stable, large-range measurements for repeatable results

The design addresses measurement tasks where reach and stability matter: classified as a large-range height gauge (measuring range up to 1,000 mm), it has a solid mass that reduces vibration and deflection during marking. Conformity to DIN 862 ensures familiar mechanical tolerances for workshop metrology, while the verified accuracy ±0.12 mm gives a clear reference for process planning. This combination of range, standardised accuracy and mass reduces rework and helps maintain consistent assembly and inspection routines.

Clear reading and controlled adjustment to reduce operator error

A magnified reader is combined with a finely divided scale to simplify observation of the vernier, supporting precise layout even under standard workshop lighting. The instrument provides a readability 0.05 mm on the analogue vernier; the coarse position can be set quickly and then refined with the fine adjustment for marking or measurement tasks that demand a controlled contact force. Engineers and fitters benefit from fewer interpretation errors and faster setup times when repeating routine measurements.

Durable construction for marking and machine-room use

The measured parts are manufactured from special tool steel and the scale and vernier are matt-chromed to resist glare and wear, improving longevity in a busy production environment. A carbide scribing tip delivers a long service life when used for repeat scoring on metal surfaces, while the analogue mechanics avoid electronics that can be sensitive to coolant and workshop contamination. The result is a tool that stands up to everyday use and keeps maintenance straightforward.

Practical applications and workflow advantages in production

Ideal for toolroom layout, fixture setup, pattern making and large-part marking, the gauge supports repeatable processes where mechanical robustness trumps delicate electronics. The combination of long travel, clear magnified reading and micrometric control speeds up marking cycles and simplifies quality gates for large assemblies. Metav’s focus on dependable supply and technical know-how also supports integration into established measurement routines, reducing downtime and procurement complexity.
