The K200 fork thickness gauge from Käfer is an analogue dial gauge with a 200 mm deep throat and an integrated lifting device, for measuring thickness even at a considerable distance from the edge of the material.
- Analogue dial gauge: 0.1 mm reading
- Measuring range: 30 mm
- Throat depth: 200 mm
- Lifting device: force 1.5 N (optional 0.9 / 2.5 N)
- Aluminium body: light and easy to handle
- Contact points: interchangeable (shapes a–e)
- Additional weights: optional, to increase the pressure
The K200 is fitted with a lifting device, so the contact force (1.5 N as standard) is independent of the operator; on request, reduced (0.9 N) or increased (2.5 N) forces are available, as well as additional weights to be fitted on top of the dial gauge.
The large throat depth (200 mm) makes it possible to reach points far from the edge. The aluminium body makes the instrument light; a mounting device allows bench use. 0.1 mm reading, 30 mm range, accuracy according to construction standard 0.0500.9.0004.
