Vernier Calliper Dual Scale Plated Steel
Product Code : JA-M-7740
The Vernier Calliper Dual Scale Plated Steel (SKU JA-M-7740) is a hand measuring instrument for reading lengths, outside diameters and inside diameters to a fraction of a millimetre in physics and engineering practicals. This dual scale vernier calliper reads 0–15 cm to 0.1 mm and 6 inches to 1/128 inch, has a thumb movement for moving the jaws and comes boxed in a plastic case. JaincoLab supplies it for school, college and workshop laboratories.
Specifications
The calliper is made of plated steel and carries two scales: a metric scale from 0 to 15 cm with a vernier reading of 0.1 mm, and an inch scale of 6 inches with a vernier reading of 1/128 inch; a thumb movement moves the sliding jaw smoothly, and each calliper is supplied in a plastic case.

Applications of the dual scale vernier calliper
In school and college laboratories the vernier calliper is used wherever a length or diameter must be measured more finely than a metre rule allows, for example the diameter of a small sphere or cylinder, the inside diameter of a tube or the sides of a regular block used in density calculations.
- Measuring the diameter of a small sphere or cylinder, such as a pendulum bob, in senior secondary physics practicals
- Measuring the dimensions of a regular block to calculate its volume and density
- Measuring the inside diameter of a tube, beaker or hollow cylinder with the inside jaws
- Teaching least count, vernier reading and zero-error correction
- Reading the same object in millimetres and in inches with the dual scale
