Double‑column height gauge, 600 mm (fine adjustment, round scribing needle) — Metav IndustryLine

The Double‑column height gauge, 600 mm is a workshop marking and measuring instrument designed for precise height measurement and scribing on medium to large components, offering controlled adjustment and durable construction.

• Fine-adjustment handwheel for controlled scribing
• Dial indicator with 0.01 mm resolution
• Double-counting display for up/down movements
• Tungsten carbide round scribing needle

Consistent accuracy for repeatable scribing and measurement

The double‑column marking instrument delivers a measurable accuracy of ±0.05 mm, meeting standard workshop requirements for layout work and rough inspection. The integrated dial indicator with 0.01 mm resolution provides refined readout for fine positioning, while the mechanical construction reduces play and runout typically encountered with single‑column devices. This combination translates into fewer re‑setups and less scrap when transferring heights from drawings to workpieces, improving throughput in routine marking and machine setup tasks.

Stable double‑column frame for larger components

Engineered as a larger‑range gauge, the unit sits in the large (500–1,000 mm) class with a measuring range of 0–600 mm, which places it squarely in the segment for substantial components and fixtures. The double‑column architecture increases profile stiffness and minimises bending along the slide, so measurements remain reproducible over the full stroke. Constructed from stainless steel, the frame resists workshop contamination and maintains alignment, while the instrument mass (approx. 7.2 kg) adds inherent stability during scribing and hand operation.

Precise control and intuitive operation reduce cycle time

A dedicated fine adjustment via the handwheel enables micro‑movements without overshoot, aiding accurate transfer of scribe lines and incremental set‑ups. The unit features a double counting mechanism that records travel direction separately for upward and downward moves, simplifying differential measurements and avoiding manual tally errors. The 9x21 clamping secures the carriage during marking or when the machine is idle, and the hand control keeps operation straightforward for an experienced fitter or inspector.

Durable scribing and practical workshop applications

The round scribing tip is made from tungsten carbide, chosen for its wear resistance and ability to retain a sharp point on steel and similar surfaces; it is suitable for routine layout work in maintenance, toolroom and small batch production. As a mechanical marking gauge with a readable analogue dial, the instrument is particularly well suited where robust, low‑maintenance solution is required rather than full electronic integration. Typical uses include height transfer for machining set‑ups, marking gauge lines on plates and components, and pre‑inspection of assembly interfaces.

FAQ

What measuring range does the gauge cover? The measuring range is 0–600 mm, placing the instrument in the large (500–1,000 mm) class for sizeable workshop components.

How fine is the dial readout and what accuracy can be expected? The integrated dial indicator shows 0.01 mm graduations and the system delivers an accuracy of ±0.05 mm, suitable for standard layout and machine shop tasks.

Is the scribing tip suitable for hardened materials? The round scribing needle is tungsten carbide, offering good wear resistance for marking on steel and similar materials; extreme hardness applications may require a specialised scribe.

Does the gauge allow controlled micro‑adjustment during marking? Yes, the fine adjustment with a handwheel provides controlled micro‑movements to position the scribe accurately before locking.

What advantage does the double counting mechanism provide? The double counting display records motion direction separately for up and down travel, simplifying differential measurements and reducing manual recording errors.
