Hi there
I'm wondering if someone can help me find a good depth gauge
It needs to have a 200mm length minimum and just needs to be pretty accurate, preferably better than 0.01mm accuracy. I assume the digital depth gauges are the best way to achieve this for not too many $. This tool is $170, I don't want to spend more than $200 really if possible.
This item has those attributes but it doesn't come with any kind of certification and there is no mention of international standards. How accurate do you think this would be if it's measurement graduations are 0.005mm? It's made in China, is that something to be concerned about.
Just wondering if someone could give me a heads up of good brands or where to look, Ive looked and it seems that SPI have a depth gauge that is fairly reasonable
Swiss Precision Instruments
Calibration cert but only a 0.01mm resolution which is probably at the limit of how precise I need to measure.
I guess if any of the following fit the bill (200mm length, but only need <5mm measuring range) It needs to be more accurate than 0.01mm
- depth micrometer
- depth gauge
Thanks in advance for any help.
Is electronic better than analog?
