Wiha Fibre-glass-reinforced Callipers.Precision Made in Switzerland.1221In 1965, Wiha chartered newterritory with the world’s first nonmetalcalliper, made from a highqualityfibre-glass-reinforcedmaterial and offering high Swissprecision. Thanks to the uniqueadvantages of the high-techmaterial, “Max range” productshave opened up new areas ofapplication allowing them todemonstrate clear advantagesover heavy-metal callipers. Wihacallipers are particularly suitablefor measuring high-quality andhighly sensitive objects. Specialfields of application thus includeresearch, the measurement ofelectronic components andsensitive surfaces, as well asmodel and prototype construction.However, these measuringtools are also ideal for all metal,wood and plastic-processingapplications, for field staff andservice engineers. Thanks to theirantimagnetic properties, Wihacallipers prevent measuring surfacesfrom becoming soiled bymetal filings, which could impairthe accuracy of the measurements.Wiha callipers can even be usedto measure magnets. Since theyare made of non-corrosive material,Wiha callipers can also be used indamp working environments.The digiMax calliper can be usedfor measuring delicate electroniccomponents.The measuring jaw of the fibre-glassreinforced calliper enables scratch-freemeasurement of even very delicate,shiny surfaces.Play free motion of the slidingcomponents components throughprecision design for precisemeasurement results:1. Fixed position2. Flexible spring componentWiha Fibre-glass-reinforcedCallipers.• Non-metallic high-tech materialwith 60% fibre-glass content,extremely high rigidity. Is used,for example, as replacement formetal die-casting alloys• Extremely wear-resistantmeasuring jaw for precisemeasurements in the long-term• Non-corrosive, non-magnetic,hardly conductive and electricallyinsulated• Resistant to chemicals (alkalis,petrol, oil, grease, etc.)• Material fulfils EU guidelinesfor contact with food• Thermal stability of themeasuring surfaces:short-term up to 180°C,continuous 100-120°C• Practical ratchet guaranteesuniform clamping force of themeasuring jaw• Unlike metal callipers, preventsdamage to delicate surfaces266 www.wiha.com
