Published figures at the bottom of two hubs
Two instruments, and one of them is the value pick of its hub.
The angle gauge: MEMS sensing at a stated ± 0.2°, four faces usable as a reference, a splash-protected aluminum housing and a hold function — for thirteen euros. The RISEPRO and Klein gauges above it in price publish no figure at all.
The micrometer, which publishes a 0.001 mm resolution and no accuracy, and uses hardened alloy rather than carbide faces.
The angle gauge, and specifically the four reference faces — it can be laid on whichever face the work allows.
± 0.2° stated · 0–90° · four reference faces · aluminum, splash-proof
A MEMS-based angle gauge stating ± 0.2° over 0–90°, in a splash-proof aluminum housing with all four faces usable as a measuring reference.
Best for: The value pick: a published figure, a metal housing and four reference faces for thirteen euros.
0–25 mm (0 to 0.98 in) · 0.001 mm resolution · hardened alloy head · CR2032
A digital micrometer over 0–25 mm (0 to 0.98 in) with a 0.001 mm display step and a hardened alloy measuring head, running on a CR2032 cell.
Best for: Somebody who wants micrometer resolution without learning to read a thimble.
