500mm Digital Precision Caliper With 0.1mm Resolution, Aluminium Profile, mm/inch Display - Metav IndustryLine

The combination of a 0–500 mm measuring range, a digital display with mm/inch conversion and a light aluminium profile delivers robust, workshop-ready performance and straightforward handling; order the M217.214 workshop caliper directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

M217.214 — Workshop caliper with digital readout and 0–500 mm range

The M217.214 is a digital workshop caliper designed for medium-range measurements up to 500 mm, combining an aluminium profile with a clear mm/inch display for precise, efficient everyday use

• Aluminium profile construction for workshop use
• Digital display with mm/inch and ZERO functions
• Measuring range 0–500 mm for medium assemblies
• Jaw length 150 mm for secure workpiece contact

Precise measuring capability for everyday workshop tasks

The caliper’s 0–500 mm range places it in the medium class, ideal for machine‑ and toolmaking tasks where reach and rigidity must be balanced. The digital display simplifies repeated measurements and reduces reading errors compared with a manual scale, while the resolution of 0.1 mm (display) gives a clear numeric result for routine checks and setup work. This combination supports efficient quality control and shortens inspection times, making measurement workflows more reliable and less error‑prone.

Ergonomic design that reduces handling time

Built with an aluminium profile, the instrument is light enough for single‑hand operation yet sufficiently rigid for stable measuring over its entire span. The extended jaw length of 150 mm ensures a secure grip on larger edges and profiles during external measurements. The display unit includes ON/OFF, mm/inch and ZERO functions, enabling quick unit changes and relative measurements without interrupting the process, which improves throughput in mixed‑unit environments.

Practical suitability and workshop resilience

Constructed to workshop standards and delivered under the manufacturer’s works standard (Werksnorm), the caliper is intended for routine industrial and maintenance use rather than ultra‑fine laboratory metrology. The RB 1 data output allows integration with measurement logging setups where compatible, helping to streamline documentation and traceability in production or service operations. The overall package is aimed at trades and workshop teams that require dependable, repeatable measurements across a variety of components.
