The Käfer F50 fork thickness gauge is an analogue dial gauge with very high resolution (0.001 mm reading), a 50 mm deep throat and a lifting device, for very precise thickness measurements over a relatively wide range.
- Analogue dial gauge: 0.001 mm reading
- Measuring range: 5 mm
- Range per revolution: 0.2 mm
- Throat depth: 50 mm
- Lifting device: contact force 1.7 N ±20%
- Contact points: interchangeable (shapes a–e)
- High accuracy: manufacturing standard 0.0500.9.0001
The F50 stands out for its very high resolution (0.001 mm) combined with a relatively wide measuring range (5 mm) and a range per revolution of 0.2 mm. The lifting device applies a constant contact force of 1.7 N ±20%, independent of the operator.
The standard contact point is shape c; shapes a, b, d or e are available at no extra charge according to the material. Accuracy to manufacturing standard 0.0500.9.0001, suitable for the finest thickness measurements.
