250mm Digital Caliper Angled Jaw Fine Adjustment 0.08mm Accuracy, Data Output RB5, Stainless Steel, Case - Metav IndustryLine

A robust combination of fully hardened stainless steel construction and a fine-adjustment thumbwheel ensures repeatable readings and safe handling of small workpieces, while the 250 mm measuring range and factory accuracy of Werksnorm 0.08 mm make it suitable for standard workshop tasks; order the Digital Caliper with Angled Jaw directly via Metav Werkzeuge or ask our consultants if needed.

Digital Caliper with Angled Jaw, 250 mm — Stainless, Fine-Adjustment (Metav IndustryLine)

The Digital Caliper with Angled Jaw is a 250 mm stainless steel measuring instrument with an angled jaw and fine-adjustment mechanism, designed for precise measurements in confined or angled workspaces.

• Fully hardened stainless steel construction
• Fine-adjustment thumbwheel for precise positioning
• 0.01 mm / 0.0005" resolution display
• RB 5 data output for digital integration

Durable stainless design for dependable shop-floor measurements

The caliper combines a fully hardened stainless steel beam and slide for long-term wear resistance and corrosion stability, which reduces drift in regular use and maintenance. With a 250 mm measuring range the instrument falls into the workshop standard category (best balance of reach and stiffness), delivering reliable performance for routine machining and inspection tasks. The listed factory accuracy of Werksnorm 0.08 mm represents the controlled tolerance applied during manufacture; this should be seen alongside the finer display resolution when assessing measurement capability.

Fast, auditable digitisation for quality workflows

Equipped with a digital display offering 0.01 mm (or 0.0005") resolution, the device supports common functions such as mm/inch toggle, zero/absolute, hold, tolerance and preset to speed up inspections and reduce manual transcription errors. The integrated RB 5 data output enables direct transfer of readings into statistical process control systems or measurement logs, simplifying traceability and supporting lean quality processes. These features together deliver a measurable productivity gain for batch checks and documentation-heavy tasks.

Fine adjustment and angled jaw for precision in tight spaces

The fine-adjustment thumbwheel provides controlled jaw travel, preventing overshoot and improving repeatability when measuring small steps or delicate features. The angled jaw (50 mm jaw length) opens access to narrow bores and shoulder features where straight jaws struggle, allowing safer contact and clearer sightlines. Ergonomic enhancements and a balanced mass (approx. 0.8 kg) make the instrument comfortable for repeated use and reduce operator fatigue during medium-length inspection routines.

Clear distinction between resolution and usable accuracy

It is important to distinguish resolution from accuracy: while the display shows values to 0.01 mm, the declared factory tolerance (Werksnorm 0.08 mm) indicates the expected measurement deviation under standard conditions. For traceable calibration, Metav supplies instruments from a controlled supply chain and can advise on service intervals to maintain consistency. This caliper's combination of practical resolution, workshop-grade robustness and data output capability positions it as an efficient tool for standard machine-shop metrology and incoming inspection processes.

FAQ

Is the caliper suitable for everyday workshop use?
The Digital Caliper with Angled Jaw from Metav IndustryLine is designed as a standard workshop instrument with a 250 mm range, balancing reach and stiffness for routine machining and inspection operations.

What is the difference between the display resolution and the device accuracy?
The display resolution is 0.01 mm (0.0005"), while the declared factory tolerance for the instrument is Werksnorm 0.08 mm; the latter describes expected measurement deviation under normal conditions and should guide decisions on suitability for precision tasks.

Can measurement data be exported to a PC or SPC system?
Yes, the caliper features an RB 5 data output that enables direct transfer of readings into compatible data-collection or SPC systems for traceability and statistical evaluation.

Does the angled jaw improve accessibility for specific components?
The angled jaw, with a 50 mm length, enhances access to narrow bores, shoulders and other confined geometries where straight-jawed calipers are difficult to position; this reduces handling time and the risk of incorrect contact.

Are common measurement functions available on the display?
The instrument includes standard digital functions such as mm/inch conversion, zero/absolute, hold, tolerance display and preset, which aid rapid checks and reduce manual calculation errors.
