About Height Gauges

A height gauge is a measuring device used to determine the height of an object and for marking items to be worked. Height gauges are typically used on a heavy surface plate with an accurately flat, smooth underside. The sturdy base ensures that the height gauge is stable when measuring to maintain an accurate reading.

This precision measuring tool operates with a sliding measuring stylus that moves along a vertical axis relative to a measuring scale on a beam. The readings on the electronic gauges are displayed on a measuring slider as the stylus slides up or down.

These tools are used in metalworking or metrology to either set or measure vertical distances. The sharpened pointer allows it to act as a scriber and assist in marking out work pieces. Generally, a scriber, test indicator, or touch probe is used to assist in marking out the measurement on the workpiece and is connected to the slider via a fixing device.
